its real easy... open up your hood... take the negative (-) off the battery... locate the airbox... its a big black box on you lower left if your facing the engine... theres i think 3 or 4 screws u hafta remove on the outside n i think one inside tha filter box... once u get those out... pull out that black box... then what should b left is a tube goin to the intake manifold (there will also be another tube under the box but u dont need to take that out since u have short ram)... look on that tube goin to the intake manifold n there should b 2 things connected to it... a hose and a plastic piece... carefully and i mean CAREFULLY remove the plastic nipple... thats your oxygen sensor, break it n u gotta take a trip to honda for another one... the other tube is a breather hose i think... now at the intake manifold, there should b a ring clamp... loosen it and pull that black tube of... now take the intake tube and assemble it if u already didnt... then use the provided hosing (i forget what its called) but its it should fit over the openin of the intake manifold... put them in this order... hose - ring clamp - ring clamp - intake pipe... now tighten the clamps... now on the intake tube, there should b a nipple, but the breather hose there... make sure its on good... what i did was use a lil soapy water to get it on... n then there should b a hole in the intake pipe n they should have provided u with a grommet u can insert... once u do that... place the oxygen sensor in there carefully... reconnect the negative (-) and start the engine and let idle to normal temp... dont rev the engine cuz the ECU has been resetted and its doin a system check...
after that... the fun part begins... test drive!!


thats pretty much it... oh and some word of advice... do a search first next time... most of Q's have been answered here many times... but ure a newbie so im bein nice...
