Section 2: Stock Intake Tube Removal
Use caution when working in the engine compartment. Make sure the engine has been OFF for several hours and cool. Some components from the stock air intake system will remain in service. Take care when removing stock air intake components to not damage them.
1. Disconnect negative battery cables. (both batteries)
NOTE: Wait for 15 minutes before proceeding to allow the ECM to fully discharge.
Disconnecting sensors before the ECM is fully powered down can result in Check Engine Codes or starting in “Limp Mode” after install is complete.
2. Remove OEM intake scoop cover
There are 12 plastic clips. Use a plastic panel popper tool to avoid damage to the cover.
Note: 2 are located behind the scoop.
Save the clips to be reused.

b. Then pull the retainer clip holding the harness to the scoop using a panel popper.
c. Pull the harness clear of the intake.

a. The filter base should be parallel to the housing opening.
b. The sensors should have proper clearance.
