idk what to tell you. You don't mess with anything that stops the car from starting unless you pulled on some wires or something.

You must have done something wrong. Double and triple check everything.
Make sure you didn’t damage the sensor wires etc

From reading all your comments.... you probably where way over your head and should have gotten someone else to do the install for you
Yeah my buddy is going to come take a look.

Everything looks good I triple checked but I'll see what he finds out

Anyone - gotta stay positive lol, learned a lot :D

Worst case Ill just tow it to a performance shop nearby and have them fix it haha

Edit: Going to put the OEM intake back in (pray it starts and then take it to a shop to install the PRL intake)

Put stock intake back and car still wont start, just cranks lol

Oh boy am I in trouble and a big idiot :D

Hondata gave me these 2 errors

Code P0560 - System Voltage malfunction

Code P0113 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit High Input

The battery was just reset and the car said it's initialization so not sure if its throwing these codes because of that

Check the wires of the MAF sensor. IAT sensor is usually built into the MAF sensor.

If the car fires up take it to autozone and have the battery tested. They do this for free.
If the battery is toast don't cheap out especially if you have cold winters. Go AGM if you can.
Also, have you checked the plug that goes into the sensor for loose wires, a bent pin inside. When I did mine I gave the wiring some extra slack so there'd be no tension by removing one of the zip tie clips.
Good luck.

Battery tester should tell you how much power is left.

Technically without the maf the car can operate with a preset air table, but just gets you by. This is usually how you test for a bad maf or bad maf harness.

Happy to report that all is well with my intake. After using the newer longer tube, and using loctite everywhere. No rattles and looks great!
