Using this intake system is easy. First, locate the factory inlet hose in your vehicle. Remove the old corrugated hose carefully. Then, install the 4 - ply silicone intake hose from the kit in its place. Next, insert the drop - in oiled panel air filter into the designated spot. You're all set! Remember, no ECU calibration is needed, so you can start enjoying the improved performance right away. As for maintenance, check the air filter regularly. If it gets dirty, you can clean it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Also, make sure to inspect the silicone hose for any signs of wear or damage over time. If you notice any issues, it's a good idea to replace the part promptly to keep your intake system working at its best.
