| Why not position the filter in the fender or behind the bumper? |

| ya putting the filter in the fender would be a much better idea. looks a little funny, but if it works thats what counts :) your still getting cold air. 1st time ive seen a filter half way down the intake though :p |

actually, ignore my previous post, but still look at the picture... the little tube (Looks like one of the injector ones) should it be plugged? or left open?
Its the little one that is connected to where the blue cord goes into the engine.. |

| you can get rid of anything in the fender. basically once your intake is in, make sure your vac lines are intact/hooked up and your done. anything left over can be taken out. |

yeah, what 2ndgenlude said, you can remove all the old plastic crap, what you'll end up with is tubing that goes right into the throttle body from the filter, then theres the rubber hose that connects the tubing (between the filter and tb) that goes to the valve cover, thats all
if that made any sense that is
btw purple as far as i know is the colour of royalty, insanity, and to a lesser extent homosexuality, probably mostly because most straight guys don't like purple, check it out here http://www.urbandictionary.com/defi...amp;term=purple |

The little tube, under the black piece, and to the right of the red hose, am i supposed to plug it because right now me n my step dad shoved a lil screw in there to...? or do leave i it open? We were thinking of getting a little more tubing, and making it look like a T to hook that lil thingy back up..
On the stock filter it went into the intake piping.
Also, this thing was a bitch to fit, we had to not only cut the S pipe, but the elbow, and then another piece of the S pipe again.... it wasnt fitting nicely =\ |

Can it wait til friday? You can see what i did and we can figure out yours, i have time before the meet i could even go to your place
I didn't have to plug anything tho, it was really straight forward when i did it |

| Beagles |
| your lucky.. we had a bitch of a time. |

do you have the b21? because that would explain why i don't have any idea what you are talking about, and any other differences
literally, mine was that easy, take off ALL old intake, check size for first elbow, cut, put blue hose from tubing to valve cover, then fit filter on, put on 4-3 coupler, size for last elbow, cut
it took some jimmying, but it all went in without much fuss, the tubing was actually only about 2-1/2" not 3" but the left over sleeve the intake kit came with can be used to make the last bit of tubing fit more snuggly into the coupler
i only had one piece of small tubing come off the old intake and it was replaced on the new intake with the blue hose, if you had more hoses, i don't know |

| u know it probaly is because of the b21... fucking engine lol |
|
|
| Gargoyle25 |
| yeah, i love my engine, so did you get it figured out now? |
|
|
| Beagles |
| oh yeah it was installed the same day... i just dont know what i should do with 2 things.... |
|
|
| Gargoyle25 |
| oh ok, i thought you hadn't finished installing it because you didn't know what to do with those things, we'll figure it out at the meet |
|
|
| Beagles |
yeah i was just like.. well i dont know wtf these are going to do now, so ill drive the car to see if it will blow up.
It didnt blow up, but im definately not use to a deeper sound... im use to "smashin the gas" and hearing that mini beasts high pitched wrrrrrrrrr rather than a deep GRRRRRR
Edit: so i guess that means my car hit puberty, and now is out of it? |
