  • cold air intake

    I picked up a cold air intake from C1 took a quick look and just wondering if there are any little tricks any of you might know to make my install a little quicker.

    its pretty streight forward, remove your battery for some more room to work and yank out the stock airbox.
    In goes the intake and your vroom "pshhh"-ing all over the place.

      I also removed the front wheel on my .:R to make install even smoother. Wasn't a whole lot of room to wrestle the air filter into place with the wheel on for me. Not sure what your install is like... might have plenty of room to work. If so, front wheel removal would be unnecessary.
