Thanks! Im glad to hear that. Always wonder if im talking to much and mentioning to many little detail lol but I make the videos how I would like to see them. I hate when I look for install videos and they dont really explain anything.
I just did this exact setup last week. Let me tell you it was night n day. But I also bought TSP's stage 1 non si with 'race' MAF and I noticed a significant difference than the of the shelf base maps. Great tutorial bro.
Would love to see some future videos on how your car drives, especially with the ktuneer and cold air intake. Otherwise I'm subbed and looking forward to more videos on your honda civic hatch sport :D
just installed the cobra cold air intake on my 2020 sport tour hatch, just wondering i can only hear the air filter sucking in but dont hear it let off, is it cuase A-my exhaust is blocking the noise or B-not putting enough power to get the full pshhh noise or possibly C- the hoses arnt put on right, got a ktuner and went dino maybe the game loose? idk cant figure out
Likely not putting enough power into it and letting off at the right moment. U gotta give some gas till like 3k rpm and then let go the gas fast and when u let go you should hear the pussshh sound. U just gotta play around with the rpm range till u find the sweet spot for your car.
Hey great video just got race MAF intake. If I choose the dual starter 21 PSI. Will I still be able to use the eco mode when I press it since it goes back to factory but have the race MAF intake without having to worry that my engine light turns on?
@@MoisesEmpire thanks but I've used all 3 tunes and using premium as recommended but I'm still getting lean bank 1 (p2187) rough idle/throttle sensor (p2100 or 2000 I forget) and I've literally never had a CEL in my life of this car 67kmiles until after installing Prl stage 1 and their filter. I double checked filter, still clean, I sprayed MAF.. clean, checked the upgraded hose clamps every thing is solid... any ideas? It comes on and off by its self every so often, mostly if I leave my car idling without driving for extended times 5 to 8m or so. And disappears at highway speeds after so many miles. But if I turn it off with ktuner it comes right back after a while... and it's been on going since late aug... Oh and going from park to drive in a mcdonalds drive through actually made my car stall... which is a first.. I had to turn it back on. Idk if that might play a role
Thank you for this video! This absolutely convinced me to get myself the race version of the cobra cold air intake as well! Also great content! Very clear and informative info 👌🏼
question!!!!! did you upgrade your stock intercooler before installing that? some ppl are suggesting me to upgrade intercooler but i really didn't wanna spend the money on that unless I 100% need that in that car.
I upgraded the intercooler a bit after this tune. Intercooler isn't 100% needed but it is good for the car. Any cooling mod is always a good thing to do so your engine doesn't overheat. Especially if your live somewhere that gets really hot during the year
Lol it happens. I tried it just to see if it really is bad and it idles horribly. Car did not wanna stay running. Do NOT install it if you don't have a ktuner or hondata. Wait till u get a tuner or try to exchange it for a street version if you do not plan on getting a tuner.
Front one is original and sides i got on Ebay and i painted them white myself. I think they fit all civics with the 1.5T engine so yes should fit yours.
The how often kinda depends where u live if u got alot of dirt or not. Its easy to take out. From bottom of the car just remove 1 10mm bolt and 3 plastic push clips that hold part of the fender liner, pull down the fender liner and bam filter is right there. Quick 2 minute job.
Any tune would work fine. Most tunes are made for fully stock cars so adding any mod even if its just an intake, will just help car perform even better.
I had that problem too well sort of , i have a maperformance downpipe and prl cobra race map intake. I did stage 1 and i kept getting the lean idle code . I used his video and worked fine !! I guess i needed to use starter dual 21psi tune and adjust the maf sensor to prl race maf and Everything seems good !
@@MoisesEmpire thanks for responding quickly and great video! Would you say it is worth doing the street as well? I have an automatic sport touring 21.
Yes. Its a great intake if you want a bump up in performance and awesome turbo sounds without having to tune the car. But if you are planning to tune the car then I say get the race version.
The filters are the same size on both street and race intakes. The difference between them is the size of the pipe that's between the inlet pipe and MAF housing. So u might wanna check to be sure u dont but something that wont work.
Hey man so I used your video as reference to install my air intake. Installed the same one u got, prl race cold air intake. I have a Honda Civic si 2019, after flashing the car the sensors came on and after driving they went away, later that day they came back on and I tuned the car off and turned it back on and they went away a couple minutes later they came back on any idea why?
Not to sure cuz I didn't have that problem. All I can suggest is make sure the MAF sensor is plugged in correctly and tightened down and retune the car again. My steps worked for me so they should work for you also.
Thank you for your reply. I just got home and it seems I didn’t tighten down the clamp by the clutch line. The sensors went away for now I’ll see if that’s fixes the issue. Again thank you for your reply 👍👍
Just a little update tightening everything down didn’t fix the issue. On civicX they recommended me to disconnect the battery for 30 minutes, apparently the computer can be sensitive when disconnected or adding new parts. After reconnecting the battery I drove the car around the block and the sensors went away.
Moises Empire cool thanks. Based on the dimensions of the filter I think the the 1035 will fit more snug but it’s good to know that the 1033 works also.
I personally do because of my front lip. My front lip is like the typeR and has 2 opening right in front of where the filter goes and because of that i need the shield so that the filter dose not suck up water when i drive in the rain... If you dont have my type of front lip then you do NOT need the shield.
I got the same mods on my 2019 si and followed this video and my car isn’t getting the power and my throttle cuts out when I get to boost does anyone have a solution to this problem
@@MoisesEmpire street and I retune it back to custom and the code is gone. I probably tune it wrong. Any recommendations or advice on how to tune? I have ktuner v2 and thank you for replying back.
@@shawnpk4462 ok yeah if you did every step that I did in my video then it will have a code because in the video I tune for the RACE intake. But its an easy fix.
Yeah to me its not really needed. I don't get y they have 2 to put right next to each other. That bolt is just to stop it from moving around and don't hold any weight so 2 is overkill to me. And its just a pain lol.
@@jeco3401 ah ok. I never heard of any one having a problem with it. It definitely bumps up the power but not a crazy amount to where it will hurt the engine.

Thanks! I appreciate that!! Good luck with the install, ur gonna love it!
Definitely appreciate how descriptive you are in this video! Great tutorial thanks for your help.
Thanks! Im glad to hear that. Always wonder if im talking to much and mentioning to many little detail lol but I make the videos how I would like to see them. I hate when I look for install videos and they dont really explain anything.
Thank you so much! This video by all means was the best install video. Every other video skipped the parts I struggled with!!
Awesome to hear! Glad I was able to help.!!
I just did this exact setup last week. Let me tell you it was night n day. But I also bought TSP's stage 1 non si with 'race' MAF and I noticed a significant difference than the of the shelf base maps. Great tutorial bro.
Thanks man. I almost bought the TSP but ima be getting the car custom tuned so it would have been a waste of money for me to buy the TSP.
@@MoisesEmpire true! But it was the best 80$ ever spend.
@@jayman4268 im sure. I hear great things about it.
You’re the 🐐
Lol thanks I really appreciate that!!
Great video, I got my Cobra intake (street) yesterday and I’ll use this video to install it.
Thanks!! Glad I could help!!
Would love to see some future videos on how your car drives, especially with the ktuneer and cold air intake. Otherwise I'm subbed and looking forward to more videos on your honda civic hatch sport :D
Thanks for the feedback!! Driving videos will be coming soon!
This vid is going into the favorites folder for later so i can reference it when I install mine.

Likely not putting enough power into it and letting off at the right moment. U gotta give some gas till like 3k rpm and then let go the gas fast and when u let go you should hear the pussshh sound.
U just gotta play around with the rpm range till u find the sweet spot for your car.
Hey great video just got race MAF intake. If I choose the dual starter 21 PSI. Will I still be able to use the eco mode when I press it since it goes back to factory but have the race MAF intake without having to worry that my engine light turns on?
Im not sure to be honest. I've never tried it. I never use eco mode
I have prl stage 1 with no maf upgrade. But I'm still spitting lean codes how do I tune stock maf but upgraded filter
Prl stage 1 shouldn't effect anything. Base map tune that comes on the tuner should help with that.
@@MoisesEmpire thanks but I've used all 3 tunes and using premium as recommended but I'm still getting lean bank 1 (p2187)
rough idle/throttle sensor (p2100 or 2000 I forget)
and I've literally never had a CEL in my life of this car 67kmiles until after installing Prl stage 1 and their filter. I double checked filter, still clean, I sprayed MAF.. clean, checked the upgraded hose clamps every thing is solid... any ideas?

Oh and going from park to drive in a mcdonalds drive through actually made my car stall... which is a first.. I had to turn it back on. Idk if that might play a role
anyone know if the tune part works for different intakes?
i have a 2015 accord i just tuned it stage 1 with ktuner v2 and i feel no difference idk what i did wrong or maybe i was just expecting more
That sucks. Try and flash it again just incase it didnt go threw. Idk about the accord but maybe stage 1 doesn't add much power.
Thank you for this video! This absolutely convinced me to get myself the race version of the cobra cold air intake as well! Also great content! Very clear and informative info 👌🏼
Thats awesome!! Im glad I could help out. I try my best to include good info that other videos dont have.
So I don’t have a k tuner yet but I just installed the cold air intake but I feel my car slower is there a reason for that
If its the race cold air intake, a tune is required so if its a race version then I suggest u remove it ASAP and install it when u get a ktuner.
This video is a keeper. Thanks for the great tutorial.
Your welcome!
Hiw did you get that piece off thats all the way at the bottom
Not sure what piece your referring to
So do I have to select this tune ever time before I turn the car on ? Or does it stay selected to this tune..? Cause this shit is giving me anxiety
You only have to do it once. Car will remember it as part of the tune. U don't even need to keep the tuner plugged into the car for it to work.
Really good video! I saved it for future reference. Great work
Thanks man!! I'm glad it helps.
question!!!!! did you upgrade your stock intercooler before installing that? some ppl are suggesting me to upgrade intercooler but i really didn't wanna spend the money on that unless I 100% need that in that car.

What is stage 1 stage 2 ? Sorry I’m new here
Different levels of tune. Stage 1 adds a bit more power over stock and stage 2 adds a bit more power then stage 1.
Can anyone explain what is starter dual target 21 psi. How much hp does this add estimated?
Its a tune that lets u switch between OEM tune and a 21 psi tune by pressing the ECO button. I made 215hp on the 21 psi tune.
How do you save the maf calibration
After u click on it u just have to upload the whole tune to the car.
Hoping this will work on my Fk8 but even if not fantastic tutorial
Thanks! If not the same then it Should be pretty similar.
Hey so I have the street version of the cai, do you think tuning it as race version in ktuner is smart or should I not tune at all.
Not smart, leave it as street version in ktuner. Only the race version intake needs it because if not the car will not run right.
Hey bro so with the race one is the tune needed for it already on the k tuner I’m installing it all tomorrow
Yes as long as your ktuner is updated with the newest update and then its the option that I show in the video.
@@MoisesEmpire alright thanks man
Do you need a laptop for the 1.2 KTuner & if so can I use a acer laptop ?
Yes and yes. Works with any windows laptop. Only one it wont work with is apple.
@@MoisesEmpire okay perfect thank you for your information and great detailed video by the way
Thanks!
@@MoisesEmpire you are most welcome, what clutch did you go with because know the stock one is trash ?
I had the ACT 6 puck sprung
Okay so I’m an idiot and didn’t read I needed a tune for the race I take how bad is it if I drive without the tune
Lol it happens. I tried it just to see if it really is bad and it idles horribly. Car did not wanna stay running.
Do NOT install it if you don't have a ktuner or hondata.
Wait till u get a tuner or try to exchange it for a street version if you do not plan on getting a tuner.
@@MoisesEmpire I bought ktuner 1.2 but I still don’t have anyone to tune it could I do it my self ?
@@uggaara8136 yes. My video shows you the steps
Unrelated question...where did you get the engine covers that you have on the front and sides and will they work with a 2018 hatch lx?
Front one is original and sides i got on Ebay and i painted them white myself.
I think they fit all civics with the 1.5T engine so yes should fit yours.
Can I get the race one if I have an automatic?
Yes
how often do you need to clean the filter or recharge it? isnt it a pain to take it out?
The how often kinda depends where u live if u got alot of dirt or not.
Its easy to take out. From bottom of the car just remove 1 10mm bolt and 3 plastic push clips that hold part of the fender liner, pull down the fender liner and bam filter is right there. Quick 2 minute job.
What injen water shield did you get ?
1033
Will an injen 1032 hydro shield work?
I've never tried that size so idk to be honest.
Awesome man, if you can a drive video. But good stuff. Learning more and more.
Thanks!! Ill have some driving videos soon. Been waiting for my camera mount to arrive.
What tune would you recommend for a non si prl cold air intake street?
Any tune would work fine. Most tunes are made for fully stock cars so adding any mod even if its just an intake, will just help car perform even better.
@@MoisesEmpire it’s cause I just put it on with dual target ans it’s still running lean
@@MoisesEmpire dual target 21 psi
I had that problem too well sort of , i have a maperformance downpipe and prl cobra race map intake. I did stage 1 and i kept getting the lean idle code . I used his video and worked fine !! I guess i needed to use starter dual 21psi tune and adjust the maf sensor to prl race maf and Everything seems good !
K tuner better than hondata ?
For the 10th gen civics yeah cuz more tuning options for off them shelf tunes. Hondata is better for the typeR.
what size hydro shield is that? I keep seeing 1040 on amazon
1033 check ebay. Thats where I got mine.
What is the difference of the street and race? Also do i have to tune it after to get the proper power results?
The race is bigger then the street and also the race requires a tune and the street does not require a tune.
@@MoisesEmpire thanks for responding quickly and great video! Would you say it is worth doing the street as well? I have an automatic sport touring 21.
Yes. Its a great intake if you want a bump up in performance and awesome turbo sounds without having to tune the car.
But if you are planning to tune the car then I say get the race version.
Did you have to change your factory maf sensor or reuse it?
@@dannoah9656 that part you reuse so make sure not to damage it when removing it from factory intake and when installing it on the new intake.
in this compatible with the honda civic ex 2019 CVT?
Only if it has the 1.5T engine.
What size hydro shield did u get? I am currently trying to find the right size for mine
Its. 1033
Will the Injen 1032 hydro shield work?
Not sure. You would have to check and see what size filters that shield can cover to see if its big enough for the filter you have.
Well I have the street one so I’m guessing the 1032 would work
The filters are the same size on both street and race intakes. The difference between them is the size of the pipe that's between the inlet pipe and MAF housing. So u might wanna check to be sure u dont but something that wont work.
Have any lights shown on your dash after initial flash? I have the 2019 non-si.
Also what ktuner did you use v1.2 or v2?
Nope. No lights have ever came on. I have the V1.2
Hey man so I used your video as reference to install my air intake. Installed the same one u got, prl race cold air intake.

@@juanflores3110 nice. Thats good to know.
Is the prl intercooler (race)is that the same way to tune that as the intake
There's no such thing as a (race) intercooler from PRL. They only make 1 intercooler.
sir where did you get that hydrosheild? any links ? TIA!
Got it on ebay. Part number 1033BLK
if i get a stage 2 ktuner will i need a different tune for this intake
No. Both ktuner bring the option to run this intake.
Great video! thank you!
Beat tutorial ive seen !! But can you do 18 civic si coupe one 🤣😫
Lol thanks!! Its actually done the same way on all 1.5T 10th gen civics.
What size hydro shield did you get? 1035?
I don't remember the exact size but here's the part number. 1033BLK
Moises Empire cool thanks. Based on the dimensions of the filter I think the the 1035 will fit more snug but it’s good to know that the 1033 works also.
What lip is that ?
Its the type r style lip from absdynamics.
Great video bro. 👌
do you need the hydro shield?
I personally do because of my front lip.

If you dont have my type of front lip then you do NOT need the shield.
Awesome much appreciated keep up the good work
What’s ktuner did you use and how much are they?
The small one and the price i think is around $450. It's been years since I've had one tho so im not 100% if that's still an accurate price.
I got the same mods on my 2019 si and followed this video and my car isn’t getting the power and my throttle cuts out when I get to boost does anyone have a solution to this problem
I would try to reflash the tune. Maybe something did not upload correctly to the car.
is a re tune required after installing an AEM CAI?
I dont think so but im not 100% sure because ive never used that one. You would have to check the description of that intake to make sure.
should i reflash my accord after i install the prl stage 1 intake system pls advice
No. The stage 1 intake does NOT need a tune to run properly.
Wtf mine doesn’t have the menus on the side to calibrate my maf housing
That's not good. Call or email which ever company u bought it from.
Got P006A after driving around after the installation
