How to: RRM SRI install
4 Attachment(s)
Tools needed:
10mm tool - I mostly used a rachet/socket with an extension to reach. Phillips screwdriver Flathead screwdriver T15 wrench 3mm Allen wrench 1. Remove a battery cable; I prefer the negative terminal (shown) because it's easier to get to. This keeps you safe from electricity and makes the car relearn the A/F faster. Use a 10mm socket or wrench for this. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...7&d=1182808072 2. Remove the two fasteners holding down the ram scoop with a Phillips screwdriver. Just pull it off the airbox. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...8&d=1182808113 3. Pull the wiring harness off the MAF sensor (just push down on the tab and gently pull). Now is also a good time to grab a pair of pliers and remove the wiring from the airbox (sorry, forgot to get a picture of that, but it's right on the front of the airbox). https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...0&d=1182808320 4. Using a T15 wrench, remove the two bolts holding the MAF onto the airbox. Save them, because the RRM kit has it's own bolts. Simply pull the MAF up and out, GENTLY. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...9&d=1182808119 5. Next, remove the 10mm bolt holding the front of the airbox down. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...5&d=1182808014 6. Now use the 10mm wrench/socket to loosen the hose clamp holding the rubber tube to the airbox. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...2&d=1182807998 7. Pull the rubber hose off the airbox. Now just gently pull the whole box up and out. You're left with this. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...6&d=1182808040 (The back of the airbox is just sitting on a plastic grommet. If your monitor has the right brightness, you can see it in the below picture...) https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...3&d=1182808003 8. Put the MAF in place in the RRM SRI and gently tighten the supplied bolts using a 3mm Allen wrench. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...8&d=1182807858 9. Install the SRI onto the rubber hose, use the 10mm to tighten the hose clamp. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...1&d=1182807960 10. Now, using the hole leftover from the stock airbox, https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...4&d=1182808008 bolt down the arm of the RRM SRI (using the included bolt and washer) with a 10mm. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...7&d=1182807836 11. Last step - grab the included filter and hose clamp, (cool friend not included) and tighten with either a wrench or a Flathead screwdriver. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...0&d=1182807953 You're done. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...9&d=1182807943 12. OK, I lied. Put the battery cable back on now. :p https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...7&d=1182808072 13. Now, start the car and let it idle for about 15 minutes so it can learn the new amounts of air coming in. Then go for a drive and enjoy. |

+1 for the UNLV t-shirt. I grew up in Louisville. Anyways, great "how-to" and great pictures!

Well, it's great to remind myself how stupid I am. :o It was red. UL colors are red and white/black. Great post either way, though! :crap:

Thanks for all the compliments. I wish I'd gotten more and better pictures but I kept forgetting because I was busy installing. :lol: Should've made Kevin hold the camera... |
Would I be able to use this method on my 03 OZ Rally? sorry, im a n00b
|
Um, no. Different car, different motor. You'd want to be checking the section for the 02-06 Lancers.
PM me if you have any specific questions. |
is there anywhere where i can get that SRI module ONLY, so i can put a K&N intake on? No offense, to RRM, because thats the system i really want, but its out of my price range. if you can, e-mail to me...yitzac1990@yahoo.com
