wiring harness. Using the supplied T-20 Security
bit, remove the two screws and the M.A.F. sensor
from the tube (save the sensor for reuse). Loosen
the hose clamps on each end of the factory intake
tube assembly.
2. Remove the factory filter minder and grommet.
3. Remove the factory intake tube assembly from
the engine. Rock the factory air box back and
forth and remove it from the vehicle. There are
only grommets holding it in, no bolts.
4. Using a 10mm socket, remove the five bolts and
mounting plate from the engine compartment.
7. Install the Airaid Cool Air Dam assembly in the
engine compartment using four M6-1x25 hex bolts
(#14) and 1/4” flat washers (#13).
5. Assemble the Airaid Cool Air Dam panels (#2,
#3) using five 6-32 x 5/16” screws (#9), #6 flat
washers (#10) and 6/32 keps nuts (#11).
8. Using two 8-32x 1/2” button head screws
(#15) install the factory M.A.F. sensor in the
Airaid intake tube (#5) DO NOT USE THE
FACTORY SCREWS! (Note: Sensor must be
installed in the direction shown in the picture.)
6. Using three ¼-20x 1/2” button head bolts
(#12) and 1/4” flat washers (#13), install the filter adapter (#4) onto the Airaid Cool Air Dam.
9. Install the factory rubber grommet and air filter minder into the Airaid intake tube.

10. Install the urethane hump hose (#6) and
two #72 hose clamps (#16) onto the large end
of the Airaid intake tube. (Note: Leave hose
clamps loose until final assembly.)
13. Install the Airaid Premium Filter (#1)
onto the filter adapter, and tighten the hose
clamp. Install the weather strip (#8) onto the
Airaid Cool Air Dam. Reconnect the MAF
sensor wiring harness. (Note: Start from one
corner and work your way around to insure
proper alignment of the weather strip.)
11. Install the urethane coupler (#7) and two
#60 hose clamps (#17) onto the small end of
the Airaid intake tube. (Note: Leave hose
clamps loose until final assembly.)
12. Install the Airaid intake tube assembly
onto the engine. Install the hump hose end
onto the filter adapter first and then slip the
coupler end of the tube onto the aluminum
intake tube. Adjust for fit, and tighten the hose
clamps. (Note: There should be a gap in be-
tween the Airaid intake tube and the air filter
adapter.)
14. Double check your work!
Make sure there is no foreign material in the intake path. Make sure all clamps, hoses, bolts, and
screws are tight.
15. Reconnect the negative battery cable!
WARNING! If your vehicle has a Vehicle Emission Control Information decal affixed to the factor y airbox, a new replacement label must
be obtained and installed in a readily visible position in the engine compartment in order to remain CARB compliant. Failure to do so will prevent
the vehicle from passing a smog check. Replacement labels can be ordered from your local dealership. Regulations state that the VECI label shall
not be affixed to any equipment which is easily detached from the vehicle. Label placement, under the hood on a painted surface is recommended.

Synthamax Air Filters do not require oil.
Service air filter as needed by cleaning
with common non-petroleum all-purpose
household cleaner and water. Simple
Green®, Formula 409® or equivalent
works great. Apply cleaner to outside of
air filter and allow to soak. Then flush
filter clean from the inside out with a garden hose and repeat steps if necessary.
Do not apply high pressure water or air
to clean filter. Allow filter to air dry and
reinstall.
