[DJTimeless]

Hey Guyz Im New To This Forum.....I Need Help Very Badly Just Bought An Aftermarket Short Ram Air Intake But Trying To Install It Is Very Hard For Me Because The Sensors Are In The Way....CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH INSTRUCTIONS ON INSTALLING THIS INTAKE ON MY 99 NISSAN MAXIMA GLE.......

[tigersharkdude]

I can help, need pics of what is in your way, and the intake you are installing

Ok I Will Do So Thnks A Lot.....Ummm Well The Mass Air Flo Sensor And There Is A Sensor That Is On The Scoop.....This Is The Intake I Got but the filter is differenthttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ories

[allensteiner]

connect the silver pipe (called mid pipe) to the throttle body with the 3-2.5" rubber coupler.connect the maf tube in line between the mid pipe and maf adapter plate (use the 3" rubber coupler from mid pipe to maf tube). connect the filter with maf adapter to maf tube with 4 bolts and nuts.

the sensor on the stock intake snorkel is the mass air pressure sensor - tie it somewhere with a zip tie - so it doesn't get damaged.

type in hai, cai or wai in the search and look through the older threads - should have pics.

these are the stuff that are in my way to installing it dono wat to do with these 3 sensors and the 2 tubes are short.....that is the onli problem im havin please help

[allensteiner]

are you high takin those sideways pics

i think i've figured it out. 1 pic - map sensor - just mount it somewhere out of the way (zip tie somewhere)2 pic - air intake temp sensor - needs to be somewhere inisde the intake between the filter and the maf.3 pic - that's the maf and if you disconnect/get rid f it you won't get anywhere.

hoses to the mid pipe - parts store or a garden hose - always shorter because the stock resonator is larger than a 3" mid pipe.

nope, some guys make a small hole in the rubber part of the filter (the back side) but it has to be before the maf - in case it was to brake off.

another question guyz when installing this intake shuld i take out the battery be4 startin to put the intake

no need for that

[DJTimeless]
