1.

Locate the charge air cooler assembly.

2.

Attach the 4.5" x 2" sleeve to the throttle body

and secure with a #72 hose clamp.

3.

Install the 1/2"NPT x 3/4" barb 90° and straight

fittings into the charge cooler as shown. (See

Fig. 8F-a.)

4.

Attach the long end of the 2.75" silicone elbow

to the cooler inlet and loosely install a #44 hose

clamp. The open end of the elbow should be fac-

ing up as it will be attached to the supercharger

discharge.

5.

Lower the cooler assembly into position. Attach

the open end of the previously installed 2.75"

elbow to the supercharger discharge and loosely

install a #44 hose clamp.

6.

Attach the cooler discharge to the previously

installed sleeve on the throttle body. Secure with

a #72 hose clamp.

7.

Tighten all cooler clamps at this time.

8.

Locate the remaining 3/4" molded 90° hose.

Trim approximately 5" from the long end and

attach the short end to the 3/4" x 90° fitting pre-

viously installed in the cooler. Secure with the

nylon ratchet clamp provided.

9.

Install a 3/4" hose union into the open end of the

previously installed hose. Attach a section of

3/4" hose approximately 32" long to the union.

Route the open end of the hose to the surge tank.

Using the remaining adel clamp and factory

hardware, secure the hose to the factory coolant

reservoir mounting location. (See Figs. 8F-q,

8F-b for assistance.) Secure all hose connections

with the supplied nylon ratchet clamps.

10.

Locate the supplied “S” shaped hose. Trim

approximately 1" from the short end and attach

it to the straight fitting previously installed in

the cooler. Install a 3/4" hose union into the

open end of the “S” hose. Attach a section of

3/4" hose approximately 24" long to the union

and route to the driver’s side and down to the

water cooler. Trim for best fit and connect to

the 3/4" hose union previously installed in the

90° short rubber hose attached to the top water

port on the CAC cooler.

11.

At this time, verify that all hose connections are

secure using the nylon ratchet clamps provided.

12.

(2007 Models Only)

To provide additional

clearance for the CAC, you will need to cut the

factory radiator hose approximately 4" from its

connection at the radiator. Install the supplied

Ø1.5" x 4" hose union and two #24 hose clamps.

Adjust to allow CAC clearance and secure. (See

Fig. 8F-c.)
