Removal

Refer to Figure A for Step 1.

• Step 3 : Unclip the coolant line from the intake tube.
• Step 4 : Unclip the top of the factory air box and remove the intake tube, air filter, and top of the air box from the vehicle.

Refer to Figure C for Steps 5-7.

• Step 5 : Remove the two plastic rivets securing the front scoop of the housing.
• Step 6 : Unclip the wire harness from the back of the air box.
• Step 7 : Remove the screw securing the air box to the fender, then pull the factory air box out of the truck. The screw will be reused to secure the aFe POWER housing.

Installation
Refer to Figure D for Step 8 (The installation of the plastic vent tube insert is important to prevent check engine light. These procedures should be done with the turbo inlet tubes installed on the engine. It is shown off the vehicle for better illustration.)

• Step 8 : Locate the factory plastic tube feeding the driver’s side turbo inlet. This is the connection closer to the turbo.
• Refer to Figure E for Steps 9-10.
• Step 9 : Locate the valve cover vent tube that feeds into the driver’s side turbo inlet (the connection closer to the turbo). It is not necessary to remove the engine cover.
• Step 10 : Check the color of the locking tab on the quick disconnect fitting. If the locking tab is orange, go to steps 11 and 12. If the locking tab is blue or grey, go to step 13.
• Refer to Figure F for Step 11.
• Step 11 : If the locking tab of the quick disconnect fitting is orange, like on this picture, you will need a quick disconnect tool to remove it.

Those disconnect tools are commonly used on AC and fuel lines.
