With the IAT sensor installed in the newly drilled hole, slide the included t-bolt clamp over the throttle body end of
the intake. Next, slide the intake over the throttle body and snug up the t-bolt clamp as shown in Figure 5. The
t-bolt clamp included with this kit is a custom size that is not commercially available. It is designed to work on both
an OEM and big bore throttle body. A 10mm deep socket or 10mm wrench can be used to tighten the nut on the
t-bolt clamp. Snug up the t-bolt clamp enough so that the CAI does not fall off the throttle body. The clamp should
be left loose enough to allow for slight adjustments in the CAI’s position when installing the bracket in the next few
steps.

For OEM Throttle Bodies: Because the intake has a 3” inside diameter, it is necessary to tighten the t-bolt

clamp quite a bit before it snugs up on an OEM throttle body. For optimal performance, install the t-bolt
clamp so that the clamp partially overlaps the bead at the inlet of the throttle body. This will press the

silicone around the bead at the leading edge of the throttle body to create the smoothest possible transition

between the intake tube and the throttle body.

For Big Bore Throttle Bodies: If you encounter trouble getting the t-bolt clamp over the intake tube after sliding

it over the throttle body, remove the nut on the t-bolt clamp and thread it back on after the t-bolt clamp is in
its final position.

Install the 3” diameter (black) aluminum tube into the supplied air filter as shown in Figure 6. About 1.5” of the tube
should be left sticking out of the filter once installed. A flat head screwdriver or 9/16” socket driver can be used to
tighten the worm clamp on the filter. Do not use a socket and ratchet or a long wrench to tighten this clamp as
over-tightening a worm clamp can destroy it.
