EDIT DEC 11,2017: Been awhile since I've been on here. Thanks to whoever rehosted the pics. If these drop off again, perhaps a mod can email me, and I'll put them back up. I won't get rid of the original pics.

..
I know there's another install thread running right now, but I promised the guys at ETS I would get this done.

First a review of the ETS intake and UICP.

Fitment:
- excellent. Nothing need to be modified at all. The MAF adapter fits perfect.

Quality:
- top notch quality. When installing it, there wasn't once where I wished they used something different.

Sound:
- the rush of air you hear is amazing! And the BOV comes to life too.

Performance:
- Much more responsive over stock.

Update: The heat shield needs to mount directly on the frame rail instead of the factory intake bracket.



Thanks!

Great write up!

 

Fantastic write-up and great pictures. I hope to be doing my intake/intercooler/uicp install this weekend if the parts arrive by then. This will work <Mr. Burns Voice:> "perfectly."

 

Awesome write up

 

Awesome!

 

highly detailed and awesomely helpful..perfect! thanks buddy!!

 

Thank you for the awesome photos - I just installed my intake (not ETS, sadly) and the instructions that came with it were utter crap. Better used as toilet paper.
I have installed an intake before (naturally aspirated engine), but this was a whole different ballgame with the vacuum line and bov return hose.
And OMG, that stupid hose clamp on the turbo inlet is a nightmare! I don't know how you got such clean photos of it, I could barely feel it let alone see it.

In short, I was utterly lost until I read your writeup. Also have learned my lesson and will get ETS parts in future.

THANK YOU!

 

Awesome, was gonna order mine very soon, this should help plenty

 

I'm guessing you didn't replace the I/C piping too. Taking that out frees up alot of space.

You really need to do that piping.. it makes a difference!

 

Sweet write up. ETS FTW

 

I can't tell you how much your guide helped with my install. If you're ever in Denver give me a ring and beers are on me.

 

thanks! use info to have... nice pics!

 

This helped the intake install so much!

I have just the upper portion of the uicp coming from ets, can I install that without taking out the lower part of the factory uicpiping?
