This guide describes a process to install your new Short Ram Intake (SRI)

The SRI comes assembled to reduce install complexity. Components can be loosened and adjusted as needed to improve fitment if needed

Open the hood to gain access to the intake air box

Unplug the connector for MAF sensor using your fingers

Use a 5.5mm socket and 3/8" ratchet or a small Phillips screwdriver to loosen the clamp circled in red

Tube should be able to freely pull off the turbo inlet pipe

Use a 3/8" drive ratchet and a 10mm socket to remove two (2) bolts that holds the intake duct

Image shows airbox lid removed but that is not necessary

Use a panel clip tool to remove one (1) clip

Plastic clip breaks very easily. Use Caution

Use a 3/8" drive ratchet and a 10mm socket to remove the bolt to intake bracket as shown

Intake shown without lid and filter for clarity

Use a 3/8" rachet, a long extension, and a 10mm socket to remove lower intake bolt as shown

Wiggle the airbox and pull it up at the same time to loosen the airbox from the rubber bushing

This can be a PITA and you can get hurt when it breaks loose. Use Caution

Once you free the intake assembly from the bushing mount, it will easily come out of the car

Using a small Phillips screwdriver, remove both screws securing MAF sensor to OE Intake

Use care when handling this sensor. It should not be dropped, abused, or otherwise gotten dirty

Orient SRI and MAF sensor as shown. Notice "W" logos and plug on MAF sensor

Gently install MAF Sensor in SRI using the provided socket cap screws and a 3mm hex wrench or bit

You should be able to press MAF sensor into the bore by hand. Do so evenly

Place SRI in engine bay as shown

Use provided 70-78 T-bolt clamp to securely attach SRI assembly to the turbo inlet pipe (TIP) as shown

Remove both M6 nuts as shown. There are washers under the nuts. Those remain in place

Set bracket over clamp nuts and finger tighten the same two M6 nuts back in place

Remove bolt from ECU bracket as shown with 3/8" ratchet, extension and 10mm socket

Pull the SRI bracket on top of ECU bracket and finger tighten bolt as shown

You may need to wiggle the ECU a bit to get bolt to seat

Square up bracket at clamp end and secure nuts

You may need to pull on the filter a bit to maintain square

Tighten nut at ECU bracket. This will position SRI into it's resting spot

Verify proper clearance around filter. There should be about 1/4" minimum everywhere

Reconnect MAF sensor as shown

With SRI installed properly, there should be some give in the MAF wiring

Optional: Remove Intake Bracket by taking out two bolts as shown with 10mm socket and ratchet

You'll notice many new sounds with the SRI installed. You can hear the turbo spool and release pressure. This is normal, most people love these sounds and it's part of the reason people install SRIs

SRIs can result in higher intake air temperatures. 27WON does not recommend running a SRI in the following scenarios

In the summer in very hot places

Regular, heavy stop and go driving for long periods of time

This completes the installation of your 27WON Short Ram Intake
