Ram Air Intake for Honda Prelude (1997-2001) 2.2L Engine - Red

Unleash VTEC’s Fury: Ram Air Intake for Your Honda Prelude H22A4

Who It’s For: Designed specifically for 1997-2001 Honda Prelude owners running the legendary H22A4 engine. If you’re a performance enthusiast who appreciates what Honda built with the H22 but knows there’s more potential hidden within, this upgrade is for you.

The Problem: Anyone who’s spent time behind the wheel of a 5th gen Prelude knows that while the H22A4 is a gem, especially when VTEC engages, the factory intake system leaves a lot on the table. Honda engineers prioritized cabin quietness and emissions over outright flow, creating a convoluted, restrictive pathway that chokes off the engine’s ability to breathe at higher RPMs. That stock airbox and accordion hose? They’re performance inhibitors, plain and simple, preventing your H22A4 from delivering its full power potential and crisp throttle response.

The Solution: We engineered this Ram Air Intake to be a direct, high-flow replacement for the stock airbox and piping. By streamlining the air path, reducing turbulence, and drawing in cooler, denser air from outside the engine bay, this system directly corrects the factory’s design compromises. It allows your H22A4 to truly sing, delivering sharper throttle response, measurable horsepower and torque gains, and that aggressive induction note you’ve been missing. Trust me, you’ll feel the difference immediately, especially when you push past 5,000 RPM.

Why This is the Ultimate Upgrade

• Sharpened Performance: Experience immediate and measurable gains in horsepower and torque, particularly in the mid-range and top-end where the H22A4 loves to rev. This isn’t just about peak numbers; it’s about crisper throttle response and more aggressive acceleration.
• Premium Durability & Design: Crafted from lightweight, T-304 aluminum induction tubing, this system not only looks fantastic under the hood with its striking red finish but is also built to last. The aluminum construction ensures rapid heat dissipation, keeping the incoming air cooler, while the included high-quality, washable, and reusable performance air filter offers superior filtration without restricting airflow.
• Seamless Installation: This kit is a custom-designed, direct bolt-on solution for your 1997-2001 Prelude. It replaces the entire restrictive factory air assembly, including the airbox and piping, with no cutting or major modifications required. All necessary couplers, clamps, and hardware are included, making for a straightforward installation that most enthusiasts can tackle in their garage.
