Using this DC Sports intake kit is easy. First, gather all the hardware that comes with the kit. You won't need to cut or modify anything, so just follow the instructions to remove the old OEM rubber intake pipe. Then, install the smooth mandrel - bent aluminum tubing and attach the high - flow air filter. Remember, since it's 50 State C.A.R.B compliant, it'll meet emissions standards anywhere in the US. For maintenance, check the air filter regularly. If it looks dirty, you can clean it according to the filter's cleaning instructions. Also, make sure to keep an eye on the connections of the tubing to ensure they stay tight over time.
