PRL SHORT RAM INTAKE INSTALLATION on 2021 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback

- Hey guys it's Chris, I hope you all enjoyed your Valentines Day. The channel hit 1.5k subs recently and to celebrate, I gave away some LASFIT stickers. Todays video is an installation of a short ram intake on the 2021 Honda Civic Sport Hatch. This will NOT add HP to your vehicle. It will only give you that cool wooshing nose and maybe 1 or 1.5 avg mpg as the intake will not be restricting any air from going into your engine. If you want to have an increase in power, get a cold air intake which I will probably be doing one day. But for now, enjoy the sounds of a short ram intake.

Finally someone does it on something other than the si. Thanks for the video!!!
Is it fine that ur putting a si intake into a non si civic?
@@adamsauer7677 Well theres 2 different options for the intake. They have a si one and a non si
@@kingvoorhees6479 do you know the link for the non si one?
@@adamsauer7677 it’s in the description
!!!!!!!🙏🏾
Dude I love your vids I’ve been watching them all day you’ve helped me love this car before I get it and helped me find all the stuff I want to do to it! Thanks man!
Sounds great dude! I’m gonna go with a short ram as well, the cold air scares me when it comes to sucking up water, it almosts floods here in my area.
Great Video 🔥🔥👏🏽👏🏽
Holy shit the difference in sound is insane
This is gonna be the first mod other than my 5% tint I do on mine I love that sound!
Definitely can't get enough of it. It's addicting. Lol
Tint is not a mod
@@houstoncastro4613 rude
@@houstoncastro4613 anything that doesn't come stock with the car and is added aftermarket is considered a modification (mod), dope.
Chris I did the same setup, now you need to get splitter all around and get the HRS taillights
Damn I have the 17 sports hatch. Got it when it first came out but unfortunately got into accidents that weren’t my fault so my car doesn’t look as clean :/ Came across your videos and definitely got hooked lol. I’ve always had people work on my car but I’m pretty good at learning stuff so I might just try and change it up a bit
I get adequate power using k&n air intake, my acceleration after (turbo lag) is better than stock. it's just full cold air intake has more dense cool air, more oxygen etc etc. but both will give you hp and of course whoosh! :D
Nice vid....I am concerned about the heat soak since it doesn't have anything to reflect the heat from the engine.
Hi I really liked your video thanks could you tell me if it’s possible how did you put the acceleration thing on your dashboard like type r . Thank you
Hey man great video on this really helpful ! Wanted to ask if I could change the Filter in front of the pipe to any kind of filter ? Or does it have to be that same one it came with !
probably too late, but you can use any filter as long as it fits. I recommned k&n air filter
Hopefully you see this on your notivs, but i have a 2020 civic and i want to add a cold air intake, is this same exact intake compatible with my 2020 civic sedan? Also i live in FL and it gets very hot, would i need a heat reflective/diminishing padding or something on the intake pipe?
Just took out my air filter. Not getting my short ramp till tomorrow. Went in my car and turned it on to accessory mode. Every single light came on. Oil, light, engine, light, etc. Hoping that is because I took out the air filter.
hey chris, just wondering, did you lights come on for you after installing this?
Its not the filter that is restricting the air flow. Its the intake box itself.
Hey Crhis, I have a Honda 2019 Sports Turbo 1.5L Hatchback, and I just got the Takeda Power Air-intake. I was wondering if there will be any issues/concerns, Problem if I were to upgrade by taking out my stock air intake and installing the new air intake I just got. Thanks
Hey bro, i've just installed a hks intake and feel as thought the throttle response is poor. Did you have any issues with the throttle after installing in intake ?
I just installed this same one on my 2018 SI two days ago and now I’m getting misfire codes for all cylinders. I guess my car just does not like it which is a shame because I love the sound. It’s the street MAF but it makes my car throw codes. I’ll re-install the stock box and clear the codes today, what a bummer. 😰
Hey does this also apply for a 21 civic lx?
Hey Christ first time wathing your videos glad to find you! i have a question im about to purchase the PRL Short Ram intake but im not hundred sure if you got the street or race MAF option. Which one did you installed in your video and whats the differences on street or race? and Which one you recommend me for my Honda CIvic Hatchback sport 2018 thank you so much for your help!!!!!
clicking the link says its for the civic Si. I would assume it fits regular hatchback as well?
thanks!
Chris will you ever get a hondata for that car in the future and do like a review or something?
Yes. But I want to hit at least 10k-15kmiles on it. That way I'll be able to give the engine time to loosen up a bit before I really push it. 😄
Have you installed blow off valve?
Which one you got the race or street series?
Hey chris time I just got a PRL cold air intake for my 21 hatch and I am getting a Emission problem on my dash did you have this problem?
Imma do this dont care why ppl say they not driving mycar
Great, a hot air intake....
Is that bad ?
and also when you getting that new exhaust?
Why didn’t you decide to go with the PRL Cobra CAI?
Aye man great video, really enjoy all of em, but does this intake work with a 2018 hatchback sport?
Thanks! And Yes, it should fit
@@chris_timefk8 okay thanks, keep up the good shit g
Any changes on fuel or response?
Hey Chris, I have a same exact car like yours. I’ve been planning to buy that intake too but im worried it might turn on my CEL since mine is stock
Difference between short ram intake and cold air intake? Which is better for this car to have a nice sound thanks
Tell me one thing ,. does the oem box with the resonator box have some way to get cold air from the bottom? or the resonator box is closed ? Is there some kind of air circulation when you remove the boxes? I am still trying to make up My mind if its worth buying the more expensive short rams with some donwpiping or the normal ones with a heat shield will do :D
What kinda prl intake is that? Does is fit on a 2.0 civic sport sedan?
I have a k and n cold air intake and mine doesn’t have the swoosh sound
Can you not just keep accelerating without taking your foot off the gas? Just wondering.. and also so even if i have a sometime 100 degree weather in cali can i still get this airtake?
well yeah ofc you can but eventually the revs will drop. i personally let go of the gas a bit before red line so i can quickly step on it again and continue speeding up. i consider it as a shift of gears lol. but for the heat im also in cali and i suggest looking for one w a heat shield on it.
Hey Chris
Question 4 you?
If I install the cold air intake, would it still make the whooshing sound?
Yes!
Can you get the whoosh with a cold air intake
It will not void the warranty, I just took my car to the dealership and told them I want to add the intake and they said it will be fine
why does the PRL not come with a heat shield?? every other brand has one...
Did you get the street or race?
hey bro first excuse my bad english, but this does not make the car lose the warranty of the dealer? I have an ex civic hatchback and I would like to change the entire exhaust pipe because mine does not have it, I do not know if I could do it or I would have to wait a while. Thank you .
Yoh will lose warranty on power train
Hey I got the same thing for my 2021 Honda Civic sport 1.5 turbo and it’s throwing and emissions code
I just got one and installed it and I am getting the “Emission problem” how did you get rid of that problem?
How’d you get you maf to fit because mine does not
I used what ever was included in the box. No issues at all for me.
Any issues with heat soak? I can’t decide between cai or Sri? I’m very new to modding (only cosmetic mods so far), and just do normal driving, no hard driving or racing.
Ive Install mine K&N CAI and the car feel sluggish. A lot of people recommend trying short ram intake with heat shield
On a SRI, heatsoak is always an issue with these cars. A CAI is going to be better. But a solid intercooler will mostly eliminate the issue outright.
Does the bracelet come with the short ram intake? Or can Ibut it off Prl website
Is it race or street?
Does this car have a cvt cooler
I have 2018 civic hatchback with the same air system and I can’t heard the difference, also every time I’ve to change the air filter is a nightmare, because Honda don’t have it.
Do you have a prl discount code?
Do you need a tune for an intake like this or is it just bolt on and your good?
Just a bolt on. No tune needed.
Do we leave the hole open all the way in the bottom?
Does this make the engine super loud other than the blowoff? I want that sound but I also don’t want to be annoyed if I’m on a road trip. Great video btw
Same thing here! Did you end up getting one? if you did how is it?
If you’re cruising you won’t hear this trust me, unless you’re accelerating aggressively constantly or accelerating. If you’re on a highway at a cruising speed you’re ok lol
How did you change your rpm dash ? I have a 2019 Honda Civic sport
There's a i logo info button on the steering wheel just keep pressing it till u find the find it
I bought the cold prl, but I am afraid of sucking up water…. Can I make it shorter the way it looks in your video? Is the result the same?
They have a conversation kit
You don’t need a tune ?
so no tune for this one? thanks very helpful tutorial
No tune. Just plug and play. 👌
@@chris_timefk8 thanks!
Chris nice video I want to do that on my hatchback, but I don't know if that modification avoid the warranty?
Thanks man..
It's best if you call your dealer. Mine said it voids warranty. But that's why I kept the stock air box just in case need to take it to them. I'll put the stock intake back on.
My sales guy told me that if it's something you can reinstall the OEM part, it doesn't void the warranty.
To be honest youll lack when it comes to preformance. Youre turning your stock cold air intake into a hot air. It youre doing it just for the sound buly all means.
hey bro hows the short ram intake for long drive?
Great! No issues whatsoever. Makes driving the car a lot more fun because of the whooshing sound.
When you clean it do you spray it with oil? If so where can I get the oil from
Most auto parts stores carry it k&n is probably the most available one
I have a question. As soon as i put the short ram intake in. the next day a lot of censors starting popping up like power steering, emissions, and cruise control. Not sure what it’s from and if it’s bad for my car
Mine did the same exact thing. The codes were for multiple misfires. I put the stock air box back on and all codes went away. One thing I’m noticing is the majority of people getting codes from this intake have lots of miles on the cars, the people not getting codes are cars with less miles.
Did it leave
You should try it with the paddles, that would be cool to see
Definitely 👍
On sports mode too lol
Thought you have to get a tune when adding something like that.
Nope! Only if your adding a racing cold air intake.
@@iceman7306 you don’t really have to with any bolt ons
Hi! Im currently using PRL cobra CAI but im worried of flood issue sucking up water. I'm thinking to get the conversion kit to change it to a short ram instead. But do you face any heat soak issue? Is it necessary to install a heat shield? TIA!
i have an si with the short ram, gonna do the CAI conversion soon bcus it heatsoakes like hell
Did you do the conversion? If so do you have any parts left i want to do the conversion cobra cai and would buy them off from you
Did you have to get your ECU re-programmed or anything after installing this?
Nope. Not at all. No tune necessary.
Hi Chris, where did u get your spoiler?
Procivic and ABS dynamics sell replica type R spoilers
My turbo didn't boost as high with a short ram intake.
I thought it adds at least 15-20 HP??
Its a noise boost and hot air intake 🤣🤣🤣, you need a heatshield between engine and airfilter especialy where you live..its hot a lot
Agreed as this mod will reduce horsepower with heat soak. Should have spent then extra $100 on the cold air PRL. But that saves room for another video. 😅🤣😂
hi. Do you need to tune the car after installing this? TIA
If you haven’t found an answer. No
Does that intake cause the check engine light to come on?
Nope
Hi. New subscriber here. I want to buy prl short ram too. Any recommend shop? Around canada ?
Hey Chris would this work in the honda civic ex? Thanks great video 📹 👍🏼
I was about to ask that
@@rolandosalmeron359 yeah waiting to see what's the answer
It should it’s the same engine
Yes it fits it’s a 1.5
Well it is a turbo car... so it will give you a few more hp
I just installed mine on the exact year and model as yours. I love the sound and it is way more pronounced in person. My only concern is that little winding noise on idle from the engine and I noticed yours has the same noise after installation. Is that normal?
Yeah its just the turbo
thats your turbo :)
Did it turn on the engine light after installing it?
Did you put street or race intake on?
Street
New sub here. Question. I should call the dealership and ask, but... would adding an cool air intake void the car warranty?
Yes it voids the warranty
Old post but it doesn’t. Unless they can prove your part was what caused the issue, they can’t void it
Is yours the race or street version??
Street.
does this intake require a tune?
Intakes never require a tune. They also don’t really do anything, other than make good sounds.
I need the case air
Sir Chris did you pick ah Sreet or race type cuz there's a 2 choice ??
i mean the MAF OPTIONS.
Street without a ktuner or hondata and race if you have a ktuner or hondata
Does this void warranty?
You'd have to call your dealer. Mine says it does but that's why I have all the stock parts so I can put it back on when I need to take the car to the dealer.
A lot of viewers says that it doesn't void warranty. I guess it depends on the dealer.
is this a sport touring hatch ?
Has it ever had a heat soak?? A lot of people are telling me it does since it’s not the Cold air Intake
Never had any issues with this even during hot summer days. It rarely gets above 90 degrees from where I'm from.
Just being honest I really wish you would have done you're hearing tests not in a parking garage. I'd like to know when it sounds like fr so instead of watching your videos I'm just gonna pick my car up on Saturday ✌
th-cam.com/video/AhO7T5RzQFs/w-d-xo.html
Check out my other video. You'll get to hear it more clearly.
Is this with the stock maf or race maf?
Stock
I didn’t know the short ram also gave out the swoosh sound. I got the cold air version.
Is this car a manual
Get a blow off valve , and that turbo spool sound will be amazing
Does not damage the engine or reduce horsepower?
@@akramalhabsi390 there’s no negative side effect to the engine or horsepower, it’s just helps car release air and it boost the sound of the turbo 👌🏼
Highly not suggested by both of the most renown tuners, John Vega and Dereck Robinson (DRob). ECU is expecting that air and if you vent it to atmosphere, it will cause your car to run rich, which overtime can cause problems. Some sort of intake that's not K&N or Injen will be your best bets for sound.
Will this affect my warranty?
That’s what crossed my mind first too, the warranty issue. Because he mentioned that if you flash the ECU, they’re going to void your warranty.
I have a 2020 Honda Civic hatchback sport and I am wondering if a short ram intake voids any warranty
Any performance mods void warranty
In case anything bad happens to your vehicle. They have to show proof that the modification was the cause of it. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
Why does the filter look like its been stepped on
Will cold air intake still make that woshing sound??
Yes
Does it need any tuning?
Nope!
Hey Chris Time I’m not seeing this question here so here it is. Did this installation mess with your engine or anything? I’m scared it’ll mess my engine up.
You do realise you won’t get much more horsepower from a full cold air intake either right?. Even with a full cai and a tune you might make a gain of 3-5 horsepower intakes are literally just for noise unless your running other mods.
Does a aftermarket exhaust void warranty?
Idk if it’s just me, but unless I’m leasing it, I just assume everything voids it lol. Once I start modding, I can’t stop 😭
Did it give you the 20 hp like it said on the website??
I have yet to dyno the car 😀
I doubt it. But with a Ktuner I felt a huge increase in performance!
Do u have a bov?
No. Engine is all stock besides the short ram intake.
