Does the tube from the AC have to get filtered air, or can I just run a filter sraight on to the turbo????

 

By A/C do you mean the silver/black pump on the passenger side of the car? That is the air pump. It is recomended that it have a filter on it. Not too important to have one, just recomended. My N/A vert has never had one ond its been fine for about 25k miles.

 

You can put the filter directly onto the turbo, you don't have to have a tube. But you will need a smaller filter for your air pump, and you'll prolly need an aftermarket BOV because the stock BPAV leaks air thus vacuum leak. Also, what about your maf?

 

Will a HKS short ram air intake come with the attachments for the air pump and sensors????

 

There are no "attachments" for the air pump. The air pump has a rubber, thick vacuum line which it sucks air thru. You can either buy a small "breather" filter for it, or run it open. You could also consider wrapping it with some mesh, to keep BIG things out of it. A guy around here ran his fine for a long time, but when he took it off and shook it, a big screw came out. Still worked fine!

 

There MUST be a filter on the airpump. At various times, the ACV is dumping air into the intake to prevent afterburn. If you do not have a filter, it will dump dirt into the engine.
