It’s a tough life when you are living in California or a similarly emissions controlled state that requires all modifications be 50 state legal. After all, when all you are looking for is to responsibly modify your vehicle within reason, it shouldn’t be this hard right?
Well good thing the folks at K&N never rest, as they recently released their new Typhoon Air Intake kit for the new 2013+ Honda Accord.
The part number for this unit is 68-1212TS and comes with all the hardware and bracketry required to install your cold air intake along with the engine heat shield.
So whether you’re looking to breathe some extra life into your 2013-14 Honda Accord – or even if you have bigger plans for the 3.5L V6 engine – the new K&N Typhoon cold air intake is one cost-effective way to bolt-on extra horsepower.
The K&N typhoon kits are designed to increase horsepower and acceleration, and feature K&N’s famous oiled cotton gauze filter that seals tight with a high-quality integral urethane seal.
According to K&N’s published dyno tests, the K&N 69-1212TS kit adds an est. 7.4 hp @ 5,429 RPM and 8.6 ft-lb of torque @ 4,415 RPM over the stock engine.
The K&N 69-1212TS Typhoon air intake utilizes free-flowing mandrel bent coated aluminum tubing, heat shield and includes the K&N conical air filter.
Improved air flow and reusable element means the filter never needs to be replaced, and can go for up to 100,000 miles between cleaning (depending on use and driving conditions).
POP-ready kits are available and the easy-to-install filters are covered by K&N’s Million Mile Limited Warranty.
Typical installation time: 10-20 minutes.
