So - as we move forward... the Mountune 2363-CAIS-BA Low Restriction Intake Kit is a sub-install of the overall MP275 kit. I also grabbed the 2363-IH-BLK Mountune Induction Hose to complement the looks and remove that silly accordian tube...
The intake itself is a high-grade aluminum - very nice compared to the FoMoCo plastic part...
it also includes a high-flow re-washable filter that has an inverted cone that is open to the engine bay - it's supposedly noisier, but honestly we can't hear much over the Cobb Exhaust.
The induction hose, it simply that - it connects the filter box with the new filter to the new intake tube
Installation is pretty simple...
First, remove the engine cover (duh) - notice the accordian tube in the 'before' picture below...
Using an 8mm socket, there's only one bolt holding the stock intake - remove that and loosen the worm bolts on both ends and it comes off pretty simply.
Simply assemble the new intake - swap the rubber grommet from the OEM intake and put it back together - very simple setup, the hoses are a snug fit - so they may take some coaxing. 4 8mm bolts to open the filter lid, pull out the paper OEM one and fit the washable filter, can't screw it up :)
The finished product looks pretty slick, almost hidden... but 50% more airflow will be awesome!
Plus it's CARB compliant!
