Using your DC Sports Short Ram Intake for the 2002 - 2006 Acura RSX TYPE - S is easy. First, gather all the hardware that comes with the kit. You won't need to cut or modify anything, so just follow the included instructions to replace the old OEM intake pipe with the new aluminum tubing and attach the high - flow air filter. As for maintenance, check the air filter regularly. If it looks dirty, you can clean it according to the filter's cleaning instructions. Also, keep an eye on the tubing for any signs of damage. When it comes to installation, make sure the engine is off and cooled down. And always double - check that all connections are secure to avoid any air leaks.
