air intake install

[mrr23]

thought i would show how to install a typical air intake

stock airbox and piping



loosen clamp at throttle body



pull out the pcv line



remove MAF



detach air filter lid and pull air intake tract out. the stock box likes to collect debris



remove the two 10mm nuts that hold the airbox to the engine bay



pull the box out. pay attention to the inlet duct.



this is what it looks like all removed



this particular intake system you bolt the tow sides together, slide the air filter adapter through the hole, put seal all the way around the box





install MAF into tube, put elbow onto the tube, put connector onto air filter adapter, attach supplied hose to tube and pcv hose, slide all together and clamp together. should look like this when done

this particular intake system didn't come with short screws for the MAF. so, i drilled through and used the stock screws. i might redo the hose for the pcv. don't like the routing. they could have done better. can definitely hear the air sucking in the motor from inside the car.

Unbox the cold air intake parts and slide the air filter onto the air tube. Use a hose clamp to secure it to the tube. Slide other (non-filter) end of intake tube through the air box, until just the filter and a few inches of tube are left inside the air box. Slip the silicone tube over the throttle body.
