Cai Question

[OrangeALero]

Will installing an after market CAI void any factory warranties. My car has 31000 miles on it, so the 36k isnt that far away. But out of curiosity and an unwillingness to wait any longer, does anyone know if it ruins the warranty?

[bigd6983]

it shouldnt, when i went in for my intake manifold gasket replacement......it was noted that i have an air injection system......but my warranty was not voided.......

if ur that scared you can pull off the filter and some piping and put ur stock box back on when you got to take it in.........thats what a lot of us do.......

that sucks u dont have the 60,000 warrenty. aleros seem to need it

[bigd6983]

i had mine extended to about 80 something........never any problems though besides intake manifold gasket so you dont always need it.......

[FormulaNERD]

yea, not everyone needs it..... never had a warranty, and i've paid appx. 25 bucks in repairs in the past 2 years :)

It is illegal for a warrtny company to void a warranty due to a air filter or CAI, UNLESS it caused the damage (i.e. water in intake)

I bought a Mugen Honda Accord CAI on ebay....feel kinda weird buying such a ricey intake but whatever. the price was right

cant wait to get it and cut it into pieces

[bigd6983]

lol yea man........good luck on that and lets see some pics.....

It can be done, but you'll have to cut the fender well :(

[OrangeALero]

why would u have to cut out the fender well?> ive heard people installing CAI's on aleros without doing so

[FormulaNERD]

depends on the diameter of the tubing.

Yeah, the 2.5" intakes for accords can be made to fit if you cut them properly. 3" accord intakes might require a little cutting of the fender well.
