Using the AEM Cold Air Intake System is easy. First, replace your vehicle's existing air filter and air intake housing with this system. Make sure to connect the replacement breather hoses properly. The system is designed to fit specific Honda S2000 models, so it should install smoothly. When it comes to maintenance, the AEM Dryflow air filter can go up to 100,000 miles before it needs cleaning, but this depends on your driving conditions. Check the filter regularly, especially if you drive in dusty or dirty areas. To clean the filter, follow the instructions provided by AEM. Remember, some AEM air intakes are not legal for sale or use in California and other states with similar emission standards. Before installing, check the legal status for your vehicle by viewing the 21 - 504R vehicle applications.
