ROAD TESTING:

1. Start the engine with the transmission in
neutral or park, and the parking brake
engaged. Listen for air leaks or odd noises. For
air leaks secure hoses and connections. For
odd noises, find cause and repair before pro­ceeding. This kit will function identically to the
factory system except for being louder and
much more responsive.

2. Test drive the vehicle. Listen for odd noises
or rattles and fix as necessary.

3. If road test is fine, you can now enjoy the
added power and performance from your kit.

4. K&N suggests checking the Filtercharger
element periodically for excessive dirt build-up.
When the element becomes covered in dirt (or
once a year), service it according to the
instructions on the Recharger service kit, part
number 99-5000 or 99-5050.

34. Re-connect the negative battery cable and
double check that everything is tight and properly
positioned before starting the vehicle.

36. It will be necessary for all Typhoons to be
checked periodically for realignment, clearance
and tightening of all connections. Failure to follow
the above instructions or proper maintenance may
void warranty.

35. The C.A.R.B. exemption sticker, (attached), must
be visible under the hood, so that an emissions
inspector can see it when the vehicle is required to
be tested for emissions. California requires testing
every two years, other states may vary.

16. Using the four bolts that were removed in
step 7, secure the two provided throttle body
brackets to the throttle body as shown.

31. Align everything for best fit and clearance
and tighten all hardware.

33. Remount the tire and torque to factory
specs.

This bolt will be re-used.
