Unfortunately, this silence comes at the cost of airflow. The K-Series engine is essentially a massive air pump; when you restrict the intake with a bulky factory housing, you’re choking the VTEC system and leaving horsepower on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Solution:\u003c\/strong\u003e We engineered this short ram intake to replace the restrictive stock plumbing with lightweight, high-velocity T-304 aluminum. By providing a direct, smooth path to the intake manifold, we correct the factory airflow limitations of the K20A3, allowing the engine to pull in more air with less effort. This results in sharper throttle response and that signature aggressive induction sound when the cams crossover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This is the Ultimate Upgrade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced Power Delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expect an 8-10% increase in horsepower and torque by reducing the vacuum restriction found in the OEM air box.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuperior Filtration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a washable and reusable dry air filter that provides high-flow performance without the mess of oil-recharge kits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for the DC5 Chassis:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crafted from mandrel-bent T-304 aluminum with a durable black finish, ensuring a perfect fit in the RSX engine bay for both automatic and manual transmissions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2002-2006 Acura RSX Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eEngine Family\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eK20A3 (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFactory Ratings\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e160 HP \u0026amp; 141 lb-ft Torque\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePart Numbers\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2.0, RSX-BASE-K20\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility \u0026amp; OEM Reference\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits the Following Vehicles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2002 Acura RSX Base Model (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2003 Acura RSX Base Model (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2004 Acura RSX Base Model (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2005 Acura RSX Base Model (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2006 Acura RSX Base Model (2.0L VTEC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInterchange Part Numbers:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: monospace; font-size: 0.9em; color: #666; background-color: #f5f5f5; padding: 10px; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\n2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2.0L, VTEC, K20A3, RSX-B\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Performance Promise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Pro-Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e After installing your new intake, we recommend disconnecting your battery terminal for 30 seconds.
