B. Install the Ø2.75" x 3" sleeve on the dis-
charge of the supercharger. Using the 2.75"
sleeve and #44 hose clamps, connect the
inlet of the Charge Air Cooler to the dis-
charge of the supercharger.
C. Install the Ø2.75" end of the 3.0"-2.75"
reducer on the outlet side of the Charge Air
Cooler.
D. Trim the Ø3.88" end of the 90° silicone
elbow (see Fig. 13-b) to allow for hood
clearance when the discharge duct is
installed.
E. Install the trimmed end of the 90° silicone
elbow onto the throttle body. Orient the sili-
cone elbow so that it is pointing toward the
passenger side. Slide the long side of the L-
shaped discharge tube into the Ø3.0" end of
the silicone reducer. Install the remaining
end into the 90° silicone elbow attached to
the throttle body. Secure the Charge Air
Cooler assembly and discharge tube using
the #44, #48 and #64 hose clamps.
