Typhoon Air Intake System

The K&N 69-1008TB Typhoon air intake system is engineered to enhance performance by replacing the restrictive factory air filter and housing with a free-flowing, mandrel-bent aluminum tube. This design dramatically reduces air flow restriction, allowing your engine to ingest more air, which translates to noticeable gains in power and acceleration across the entire RPM range. This short-ram intake system features an attractive blue powder-coat finish on the aluminum tubing and includes a K&N high-flow air filter with a black rubber top. The oversized, conical air filter provides increased surface area for greater dust capacity and airflow at lower restriction compared to standard filters. It is designed to last up to 100,000 miles before requiring service, depending on driving conditions. Installation is typically straightforward, often completed in 90 minutes or less, utilizing existing factory mounting points with common hand tools such as a screwdriver, pliers, ratchet set, and Allen wrench. K&N also notes that some Typhoon air intakes may not be legal for sale or use in California and other states with California emission standards; it is advised to check the K&N catalog or website for specific vehicle applications and CARB status. This K&N 69-1008TB Typhoon air intake system is specifically designed for the 2001-2005 Honda Civic models, including DX, EX, EX Special Edition, LX, LX Special Edition, and Value Package trims, all equipped with the L4-1.7L engine. It also fits certain Acura EL models from 2001-2005.
