Help with Apexi Power Intake
 
I have the filter and brackets, but no installation instructions. Anyone have some they could scan and email me? Or else does anyone have a picture or two of the installed filter they could post? I'm just not sure if i have all the pieces and how to install it. Thanks!

hey-i have the same thing on my FC, maybe i can help.
mine came with directions in japanese...not very helpful, since i dont read japanese :rlaugh:
i cant send you any pix, b/c im at work right now, but i could walk you through it if you like.
if you can, take pix of all the parts lined up. its fairly simple. the japanese directions i have did come with a diagram that was somewhat helpful.
good luck!!

what all do you have done to your car. if you install it without a heat sheild youll be sucking warm air and youll lose powere the stock intake is the best was to go. because its mounted in the best place to get the cold air.

Werd,

I suggust you build a CAI or a cold air box, otherwise you'd just be sucking in heat from the engine, negating any gains made from using the cone filter.

Contructing a CAI is simple, search on it if you have any questions ;o!

Yea, I know about the cold air box. I have every intention of doing something but i have to mount the filter first so i can see what i need. I know I'm missing two of the four mounting brackets. I'll have to fab them myself and don't think that will be a problem. I just need to see where the two I have were designed to go and take it from there. I also need to see how the filter is attached to the AFM. I can figure something out on my own but I'm not one to reinvent the wheel! Any pics would be appreciated. Or if someone has the original instructions, Jappanese or English, as long as there are diagrams, could you scan them and email them to me or attach them to your post? Thanks!

Could you scan the diagram and post it?

White 7 makes an adapter to mount it on an s4. Its on his website (someone plus help me link it).

Hey thanks a million RXgirl7! :) That's just what i needed. I'm missing two of the brackets, but now I know which ones and where they go. Sorry i'm slow on this. For whatever reason I'm not getting the instant email notification of posts.
