and secure with a #52 worm gear clamp. (See

Fig. 7C-1)
Locate the remaining Ø3” x 90° aluminum tube

with the tighter bend radius. Insert the shorter

leg into the open end of the large 90° rubber

elbow and orient it to point to the passenger side

of the car, with the open end passing just behind

the radiator as close as possible to the car’s

frame, and secure with a #52 worm gear clamp.

clamp.
Locate the Ø3” aluminum tube with the multiple

bends. Work the “S” bend portion up into the

engine compartment and insert the other end

(the end with the 90° bend) into the silicone cou-

pler in the previous step. Secure with a #48

worm gear clamp.

module and install it into the included 3.8" MAF

housing using the included M4 fasteners, ensur-
