38889, Help on AEM CAI
Posted by Mitsuclipse, Dec-04-02 03:02 PM
Hey guys....I know this is probably somewhere on the site, but my search didn't help me at all. I even searched the archives and stuff, with nothing...

I just bought an AEM full Cold Air Intake with the Bypass Valve...I need some installation instructions, or just a pic maybe, because i am trying to install it, but there's always something in the way. Also, what is the bracket supposed to bolt up to??? Thanks

Thats the only pic I have....

Once you remove the stock airbox from the car and get the CAI positioned right you will see where to bolt it up. Right by where the little bracket is you will see a screw hole.

Hope this helps....

what headers are on that car, and how much did it run you, and are they any good?

actually (according to aem) the best place to put the bypass valve is right where the aem logo goes. they told me it allows the air to travel at a higher velocity. once it hits the bypass (a minor obstruction) when proporly mounted it will not hinder airflow, but when it is placed after the elbow,filter side, it may cause minor turbulance. i know this for a fact because when i tore my baypass valve, i put in a coupler to take its place, and the power was smoother, and the intake noise didnt cut out as quick.
