Injen Cold Air Intake HowToAnyway, CAI's are a good idea. They help prevent heatsink (engine area gets hot, turbo sucking warmer less compressed air, loss of power) and they make it eaiser for your whole system to breathe.
Equipment:Injen CAI RD3015 (Black) Tools:Socket set
Pliars
Screwdrivers
Installation:This install was easy. We eyeballed about 90% of it and only checked the instructions to verify that we weren't doing anything grossly wrong.
First off, you take the engine cover off. Then pull the stock airbox out. You do this by removing two screws on the right side of the box, and then removing two screws where the air tube on the engine side connects. Be careful with those scres, it is easy to lose them. By the way, the tool in use in the picture is by far the most out of place tool I have ever seen. So of course we used it. It's like a 3 foot ratchet extension.
Then you pull the battery and battery assembly out. This makes it 131928x easier. Yup, 131928x. After that pull the tube in the front right corner out as this was for the stock air box.
There are three shrouds you have to take out now. The first two are easy, its just four screws on the top over the light assembly. The shroud that is AROUND the light is a bit tricky. It doesn't have screws on top, it has three plastic connectors. (Kevin called them snapydoodles, you are welcome to use that word.) Push the center piece in with a pokeyjammie (I used one side of the pliars) and that releases the tab. We had to go under the car to push the bottom one in. Then just sorta rip the thing off. Play with it a bit and it will come off, you'll just have to try not to do any damage.
It isn't hard with the battery off. (This picture sorta confused us, we know it is from the install and we think its the bottom snapydoodle but we aren't sure. So, whatever, here's the picture....)
Carefully shove the tube in the area that opened up in the front corner and line the attachments up with the mounts on the metal engine compartment. Put the tube in the engine intake and tighten up the two clamps around it.
Now attach the mounts as per the instructions.
Now you can see the tube is snugly in place. From under the car reach up and put the filter on. Then tighten up the clamp, it's kinda a pain but you can do it if you are patient.
And now you can see the results. And HEAR them. The car sounds like a real turbo now.
Enjoy!
