Install Guide:
This install guide illustrates the key steps and
procedures needed to properly install your new
cold air intake.
Shown to the left is an illustration of most hardware included with this cold air intake. For your
convenience, most of the bolts for the throttle
body have been supplied already threaded into
their proper positions. Refer to this guide if you
remove the bolts and need to determine where
they were intended to go.
This intake is designed to
mate to RBC, RRC, RBB,
and PRB intake manifolds.
One side is compatible with
a PRB manifold. The other
side is compatible with the
RBC, RRC, and RBB. The
intake is labeled at each
end with the manifolds it is
compatible with. In this
guide, we will be installing
the intake on a K-swapped
EK with an RBC manifold.
Note in Figure 1 how the
end labeled “RBC/RRC” is
shown next to the throttle
body on the RBC manifold.
Before beginning the install,
make sure the intake is
oriented so that the label
matches the manifold it
attaches to as shown in
Figure 1.
Before installing the cold air intake, a hole must be drilled to accommodate the IAT sensor. The IAT sensor
should be installed on the section of straight tubing closest to the throttle body. First, mock up the intake by
slipping it over the throttle body. Position the IAT sensor connector about half way between the throttle body and
the end of the nearest bend (as shown in Figure 2) and ensure there is sufficient wire in the harness to reach
the point you’ve selected. The IAT sensor can be mounted on top of, underneath, or on the side of the silicone
tube. Most users prefer to mount the sensor underneath to avoid unnecessary clutter. Mark the location where
the IAT sensor will be installed so that you know where to drill in the next step.
To install the IAT sensor, drill
a 7/16” (or 11mm) hole in
the location the sensor will be
inserted, as shown in Figure
3a. Using a stepped drill bit
makes the job a bit easier, but
a traditional drill bit will also
work. Figure 3b shows the IAT
sensor installed after drilling.
During the drilling procedure, it is
likely that debris were deposited
inside of the tube (see Figure 4).
Using a damp rag or a blow gun
(attached to an air compressor),
remove all of the debris that was
created in step 3.
