18. Back to that new Inlet Tube. Slide one of the new stainless steel clamps onto the throttle body end. This is the end farther away from the MAF. Slide a silicone coupler onto that same end, making sure it extends well past the band on the end of the tube.

19. Place the other band on the tube on the throttle body. Check placement of bands so that you have easy access to the tightening screws. You may have to loosen up the bands before installing.

20. Insert the end of the Intake Tube without a silicone coupler into the hole in the new heat sheild. Slide the Intake Tube with the silicone coupler over the throttle body, sliding the stainless steel clamp over the coupler. Adjust band positions and then tighten using a flat screwdriver or a hex nut driver.





21. Going through the wheel well, install a stainless steel band and then a coupler onto the exposed end of the Intake Tube.



Note location of screwdriver and position of clamp tightening fasteners. I found you can gain access to this screw from around the suspension bits quite nicely. I also found that after initial tightening with a flat screwdriver, that I preferred final tightening with a nut driver. In my kit, to my surprise, the 4 bands required two different socket sizes.
