Using this K-Tuned Ram Air Intake is simple. First, make sure your car is a K-swapped one and meets the requirements like having the K-Tuned Passenger Side Radiator and RBC or RRC intake manifold. Install the intake following the included instructions, placing the 3-inch aluminum tubing in the engine bay in front of the transmission case and positioning the air filter behind the front bumper grille. For normal driving, keep the air filter in place to protect the engine. But on track days, if you want maximum airflow, you can remove the air filter. Just remember, you'll need a Flashpro or KTuner for it to work. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the air filter for dirt and debris. Clean or replace it as needed. If you chose a filter with a velocity stack, inspect it too to ensure it's in good condition. Also, keep an eye on the intake tubing for any signs of damage or wear.
