OLD INTAKE.

USING A FLAT HEAD SCREW DRIVER, OPEN THE FRONT OF THE MAF.
INSIDE, DISCONNECT THE PLUG LEADING INTO THE MAF. YOU CAN NOW PULL OUT THE RUBBER STOP OUT OF THE SHELL.
(99-03 MODELS) THE MAF-TO-FILTER ADDAPTER THAT COMES WITH THE HOT SHOT INTAKE CAN NOT BE USED BECAUSE THERE IS NO THREADING ON THE MAF. SO LEAVE THE PLASTIC FRONT END OF THE MAF SHELL ON.
OLD AND NEW INTAKE
DO TO USEING THE STOCK PLASTIC PEICE ON THE MAF, THE SILICONE HOSE CANNOT BE USED AND AN AFTERMARKET BREATHER WILL HAVE TO BE USED.
START TO ASSEMBLE THAT NEW HOT SHOT INTAKE. PUT THE STRAIGHT COUPLING ON THE THROTLE BODY AND PLACE THE INTAKE TUBE IN THE OTHER END. DO NOT FORGET THE LOCK TIES!
PLACE THE SECOND COUPLING ON THE OTHER END OF THE INTAKE TUBE WITH THE BIG END FACING OUT. TOWARDS THE MAF. PLACE THE MAF INTO THE COUPLING.
IT'S TIME TO PUT THE AFTERMARKET AIR FILTER ON. YOU'RE GOING TO NEED ONE EXTRA LOCK TIE FROM THE OLD INTAKE TO HOLD THE NEW FILTER ON. (HERE I USED THE ONE WERE THE OLD TUBE MET THE MAF SHELL BECAUSE OF THE SIZE).
NOW GO BACK OVER EVERYTHING AND TIGHTEN ALL THE LOCK TIES AND PUT THE ONE HOSE BACK ON THE TUBE AND RECONNECT THE MAF SENSOR PLUG. LASTLY RECONNECT THE POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.
YOU ARE NOW READY TO ENJOY APRROX 10 MORE HORSEPOWER!
COMMENTS: THIS IS NOT A VARY DIFFICULT JOB AND IS VERY REWARDING WHEN YOU GET IN AND DRIVE IT WITH THE NEW INTAKE FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOU WILL NOTICE A NICE CHANGE TO THE SOUND OF THE CAR AS WELL AS PERFORMANCE.ENJOY.
