K&N 2002-2005 Honda Civic Si 2002-2006 Acura RSX Type-S Wrinkle Red Typhoon Short Ram Intake
The K&N 69-1009TWR Typhoon air intake system replaces the restrictive factory air filter and housing on 2002-2005 Honda Civic Si and 2002-2006 Acura RSX Type-S models with a mandrel-bent aluminum tube and high-flow filter. This setup smooths airflow to deliver more air into the engine for noticeable power and acceleration across the RPM range. The wrinkle red powder-coated tube directs air straight to the throttle body while retaining all factory sensors and hoses.
