completely from the vehicle. The vehicle will still
be equipped with the horn located inside of the
fender.

fitting into the threaded hole on the supplied
Ø3.5" x 90° plastic inlet elbow.

secure with four 1/4-20 x 1/2" SHCS. Install the
air filter onto the flange on the inside of the air
box.
D. Secure the hose clamp on the air filter.
E. Install the upper and lower mounting brackets
onto the air box and secure with 1/4-20 x 1/2"

ing the vehicle’s cooling fan. Install the air box
into the vehicle on the passenger side. (See

elbow to the supercharger and flex hose. Secure
both ends with the provided hose clamps. (See
