A 2008 Honda Accord K&N air filter and intake upgrade can give your sleek little machine a serious power boost. The solid, reliable, roomy Accord has been a standard bearer for family sedans for years, but recent upgrades and changes may leave you longing for more power where it really counts.
The Honda Accord has changed significantly since the first one rolled off the assembly lines in 1976, but its reputation has remained strong. The Accord is a solid, roomy, reliable machine that retains its resale value for years. The 2008 Honda Accord got a stylish new look that’s added to its desirability. The only hitch in the Accord’s bright reviews is power – the 2008 Honda Accord comes in two different 4-cyl engine flavors – 2.4L and 3.5L. Four cylinders are enough to get you where you’re going, but if you like a little extra oomph under the hood, you may have to do a little aftermarket modding. One of the simplest upgrades – taking just about an hour and a half of your time – is replacing the OEM air filter and intake box with a custom-crafted 2008 Honda Accord K&N air filter and cold air intake replacement.
K&N, known throughout the automotive world for their custom-crafted aftermarket parts, have been designing air filter replacements for over 40 years. Rather than creating a knock-off of the factory part, K&N engineers get down to the design level and figure out how to modify the OEM engine parts to deliver more performance and better fuel performance. The 2008 Honda Accord K&N air filter will fit the standard Accord filter box, providing a permanent replacement for the factory-installed paper air filter. You’ll get up to 50,000 miles before the air filter needs attention. At that point, you can remove it, rinse it clean and reinstall it. The 100 percent oiled cotton filter is designed for maximum air flow, which will increase your engine’s performance.
If you want to take your mods a step further, K&N also makes an entire air intake system for the 2008 Honda Accord. Their own tests show a reported 11.13 horsepower increase at 5600 RPM after the installation of the 2008 Honda Accord K&N air filter and intake system. The air intake system replaces the factory air box with a heat shield assembly that ensures a consistent flow of fresh air, which provides increased power and excellent filtering.
