Using this intake system is easy. First, make sure your car is turned off and cool. Remove the old factory inlet hose and replace it with the 4 - ply silicone hose included in the kit. Then, install the high - flow drop - in oiled panel air filter. You don't need to do any ECU calibration, so it's a straightforward process. As for maintenance, regularly check the air filter. Every few months, take it out and inspect it for dirt and debris. If it's dirty, clean it according to the manufacturer's instructions. When driving, there's no special handling required, but always drive safely. And remember, this intake system is designed specifically for 2018+ Honda Accord 2.0T models, so make sure your car matches before installation.
