hmmm ill have to do that to my box when i get home lol

use the nisei intake pipe, makes the install a lot easier

 

I'm gonna get the nisei uicp, stealth ftmfw! I'm thinking of making a top cover with slots on them and see if it breathes any better. will probably suck in hot air though.

 

I thought about removing that padding as well but never did it....I'll have to give it a try now....BTW JoeyM3 the Nisei intake pipe re-routes the bov position right??? I think I may have to get that myself....looks much cleaner that way IMO. How much did you get it for, if you dont mind me asking. I looked at Nisei's site but they dont have a price for just the intake pipe itself...thanks.

 

Did anybody find the vacuum hose from AEM off of the blowoff valve to be too big????

 

im missing something here... but when i disconnect the hose from the stock intake. and put the aem in and now i have one fitting on the aem unused. am i doing something wrong? the sem instructions suck *****!

 

Old bump, but yup, I did. They said we had many people install w/o issue. I ended up just going to Kragen and picking up some extra tubes to save some time/headaches. It's like .49/ft. The thing that pissed me off the most was that it was on my second time installing (first time missing 2 alum adaptors). The intake is still chilling there waitng for a 3rd install.

 

Too big as in diameter or length?

Mine was the right length and diameter. Nice and tight.

 

I had to go buy a few pieces of tubing to install mine...pain in the ***

 

Yes the instructions could use some improvement.

If you have one vacuum line off the AEM turbo inlet tube that's not being used, then yes it's not hooked up right.

You have two lines off the stock boost control unit that connect into one line, which then connects to the stock turbo inlet tube. The AEM intake requires you to separate those two boost lines, and then connect each one separately to the two AEM lines off their turbo inlet tube.

BTW, foam insulation makes the connections more air tight on the air box.

 

i figured that but i jus went ahead and left that one line that split into 2 line as is and plug it to the aem intake..and then i capped the unused nipple with a vacuum plug...if i done it that way..would it hurt/affect anything?...thanks in advance....

 

Too big in diameter. It doesnt really matter, I just went and bought two feet of the right diameter and cut it to length. Just thought that for the amount paid for the product I should have all the parts correct and includedThanks tho.

 

Do u guys hear a fluttering nosie alot with AEM Cai? I installed mine and double check all the clamps and I hear fluttering noise at low speeds, does anyone else get that?

 

tried to get one but ended up with a Genesis intake,,, by one of the awesome vendors here

 

I solve it, it was a vacum leak from hose to BPV. I tighten the 2 clams and I got a smaller diameter hose and problem solved no more fluttering noise.

 

Do u guys know if I can use the stock intake inlet tube (black PVC pipe) instead of the one that comes with the kit?
