Do you know how to turn a bolt, loosen a clamp, and push down on a lever? If so, installing this carbon fiber cold air Intake and battery relocate from Acuity will be a piece of cake for you! Acuity offers a wide variety of parts for the 9th Gen Civics, and their first performance part to be featured on the channel is their intake and battery relocate kit. Their intake will allow my engine to inhale a bit deeper than the stock setup, while also making servicing the vehicle much easier due to its design and simplicity.

When you purchase one of Acuity’s cold air intakes for your OEM manifold & OEM TB configuration, if you decide to upgrade your manifold, throttle body, or both, Acuity has you covered with different couplers for your application. Links for all of them will be found below.

Feel free to take a look at the products I’ve outlined in this video. By purchasing items below, it helps my channel operate and brings more awesome content your ways. Thank you all for your generous support!! 💙
