Love this Prelude!

Rich at PAW recommended an ACT clutch for my
track Crx & I'm really pleased with it.

New Air Filter

Post by Dino » Sun Jun 05, 2016 8:02 pm

As I'm getting the old girl ready to get a few more bits fitted and need to get her remapped, one thing I wanted to be sure was that she was getting enough air and didnt want this to be a restriction during the mapping process.

The car was fitted with a k&N Cone filter Part No RC9310.

This is the same filter that fits the K&N Typhoon that is supplied to the H22a7 Accord-R's. I'm sure it may be fine for what I want, but I'm trying to eliminate any restrictions I can see,

My filter currently sits behind the front bumper and i could see I had a bit of space to fit a larger filter.

After a few measurements, I decided to get a K&N RC-5144

After comparing the dimensions, the new filter provided just over a 35% increase in surface area over the current filter, so all looking good 8-)

So I removed the old filter

New Vs Old

& Finally fitted the larger new filter.

Hoping to get a few more bits done soon, and possibly Mapped over the summer.

So happy days
