supplied MAF meter to the Vortech MAF bracket
and secure (see Fig. 10-a for orientation). Remove
the factory MAF screen before attaching the meter
to the new MAF bracket.

x 3-1/2" x 4" elbow and #64 hose clamps to the
MAF and secure.
C. Mach 1 Models Only: Cut the outer two wires
attached to the MAF harness plug approximately
2" from the MAF connector. (See Fig. 10-h.)
Connect the gray with red stripe wire coming from
the main harness to the red wire in the supplied
IAT sensor harness using solder and the supplied
shrink sleeve.Connect the gray wire coming from
the main harness to the black/brown wire on the
supplied IAT sensor harness using solder and the
supplied shrink sleeve.
D. Insert the factory air temperature sensor into the
rubber grommet located on the side of the 90°
elbow. Lubricate it for easier fit.
E. Working from beneath the vehicle, remove the
two factory nuts and washers from the passenger

F. Using a #52 hose clamp, connect the piece of
3-1/2" flex hose to the elbow attached to the MAF
meter and route it through the opening in the right
side inner fender toward the supercharger. Make
sure that the 3-1/2" flex hose does not contact
or rub on the edge of the inner fender opening
(eventual hose failure will result if the hose is not
properly routed).
G. Route the factory temperature sensor and MAF
sensor connectors out through the inner fender
opening. Reattach the connectors to the relocated
sensors.
H. Connect the supplied molded inlet duct onto the
supercharger inlet (see Fig. 10-b) using the 3-1/2"
sleeve and #56 hose clamps provided.
I. Attach the supplied 1" x 90° rubber hose and #16
hose clamp to the 3/4" x 1" straight hose fitting
located on the inlet duct. (See Fig. 10-c.)
J. Connect the previously installed 3-1/2" flex hose
to the inlet duct and secure with the #52 clamp.
K. Install the supplied length of 3/4" hose from the
inlet duct to the crankcase breather fitting (see
Fig. 10-d). Trim hose length as necessary.

it on the 5/8" boss on the molded inlet duct.
