After installing my M2 CIA I know need tocover the opening to the stock intercoller. How do I direct fresh air to the intercoller since the stock plate that draws the fresh air from the stock intake box obviously won't fit? What did the rest of the planet do that installed a m2 cia with the stock intercooler?

 

cut a small square of aluminum sheet metal. get 3 roofing screws.

Bzzzz.

put if u want it to look pretty, a guy in the for sale section is seilling real nice covers for 20$

the M2 gets air from the bottom, not top like stock

 

^ all you have to use is double sided 3m tape.

I also polished & stenciled in "RX-7" Then I sprayed the area around the stencil black.


BTW, you definately should install some sort of cover. The intercooler won;t cool well if its left open.

 

duck tape the sucker!

 

Thanks boys, I figured it was something stupid like that. But I'll check the for sale section for that cover.

 

Northern, I have your definitive solution: upgrade the IC

Good advice. And I'll bet Ramy has a couple of those highly coveted M2/ASP intercoolers laying around, don't ya?

But for a temporary fix a sheet of aluminum will work fine.
