Short Ram Air Intake for Honda Accord (1999-2002) with 2.7L/3.0L V6 Engine Red

High-Velocity Induction for the Honda C27A4 and J30A1 V6 Platforms

Who It’s For: Engineered for 1995–2002 Honda Accord owners running the C27A4 or J30A1 V6 powerplants who are tired of the stock sluggishness and want to hear what their engine is actually doing.

The Symptom: The factory intake on the Honda V6 is designed for silence and mass-market comfort, not performance. It utilizes a restrictive resonator box and multi-bend plastic tubing that creates massive air turbulence, effectively choking the engine’s throttle response. When you step on the gas to merge or pass, there’s a noticeable delay as the engine struggles to pull air through the cramped factory baffles, leaving the car feeling heavy and unresponsive in the mid-range.

The Engineering Fix: This Short Ram system solves the airflow bottleneck by replacing the restrictive plastic plumbing with a 3-inch mandrel-bent T304 aluminum tube. By smoothing out the airflow path and utilizing a high-flow conical filter, we capitalize on basic fluid dynamics to reduce vacuum pull and increase volumetric efficiency. The result is a more direct column of air reaching the throttle body, which significantly sharpens throttle snap and provides a deep, mechanical induction growl that the factory airbox was designed to hide.

Why Mechanics Choose This Kit

• Optimized Power Band: By reducing intake restriction, this kit helps the V6 breathe better at higher RPMs, resulting in a horsepower and torque increase of up to 10% depending on your existing modifications.
• Aggressive Induction Note: You’ll notice a night-and-day difference in the cockpit; the engine transforms from a silent commuter to a throaty, performance-oriented V6 the moment the RPMs climb.
• Premium Build Quality: We use lightweight T304 aluminum which dissipates heat faster than stock plastics and include a washable, reusable high-flow cotton fiber filter that filters down to microscopic levels without sacrificing CFM.

The Performance Promise

Buy with confidence. This system is a direct bolt-on replacement for the restrictive factory air box and can typically be installed in under 60 minutes with basic hand tools. For the best results, we recommend a brief battery disconnect after installation to allow the ECU to reset its long-term fuel trims and recognize the increased air density immediately.
