I finnally did it hoping to help out when summer comes and it has a nice tone to it :). The car seems to breathe better too considering its like 80-85 degrees here already. Thanks.

the aem cai for the 4cyl accord is a one-piece pipe.

you cannot install a bypass valve.

you can install a bypass valve, but in order to do that you have to cut it in half.

"it" meaning the actual metal piping of the intake.

yes hack the cold air intake pipe in half and reconnect it with the bypass valve, thats how its done with all intakes.

my ebay CAI is a two piece, right now i have the bottom half off so it's like an SRI. i could insert a bypass between the two pieces.

but if yours is one piece you'll have to cut it. shouldn't be too hard.
