Installation (Pics #1, 2, 3)
Disconnect negative end of the battery.
Remove hose clamps from factory throttle body. Pull up on Air Bridge, this will release with a pop. Pull air box back
towards the engine, this will also release with a pop.
Disconnect mass airflow meter, may need small flathead for this,
Remove air intake system.
Unscrew small factory tabs as shown (use pliers)
Assemble VR system outside of the car (Pics # 4)
Assemble as show in picture
Install screws in to bracket , use rubber washers on out side of bracket, these will go between bracket and VR duct,
3 spacers per side
Install VR filter in to VR upper air box, The snake charmer now has a perimeter gasket that encases the air filter .
This will be very tight, start in the middle and slide the filter in moving towards the outer edges as shown.
Put lower and upper ducts together using the T- handle latches, gaskets will overlap creating even tighter seal.
Check duct for seal, by visual inspection, duct should be good and stiff
Cutting the shroud (Pics #5, 6, 7, 8)
Using VR supplied template, place between two lower dimples at the lower portion of the frame rail. Trace the
template as shown, use a white marker or white out.
Using box knife( DO NOT USE A LONG BLADED KNIFE, blade should not be longer than 1-1.5 inches in length)
stab the shroud to make initial cut. You can use a dremel here but it tends to melt as it cuts due to its high RPM
Install supplied trim material, clamp down on this with pliers as these contain metal clamps inside the material for
a good grip.
