urgent pics needed of APEX'i power intake!
 
PLEASE i'm desperate guys. i need some close up pics of how to properly mount the APEX'i power intake kit into my FD. i got the stock air-box out without any issues at all and i THOUGHT that i understood the diagrams in the directions booklet but i can't for the life of me figure out how to get it in there.

what i need is some close-ups of the mounting brackets that come with the kit and where the hook up to the car and the elbows themselves. someone PLEASE hook a brother up. i have to get this in tonight because first thing tomorrow AM i am having my PFC installed and tuned.

thanks in advanced

Here's my install pics. Scroll down past the piping pics to the Intake pics near the bottom of the thread.

screw the brackets. you don't need them, I daily drove my car for a year and half without them. just connect all the hoses (6 total) and be done with it ;).

neither of min euse the brackets, Rich.

pugg57 05-21-04 11:14 AM

i might have to do that at least for the time being... depending on the weather tonight. they don't clank together when you are driving do that?

AMRAAM4 05-21-04 11:16 AM

pugg57 05-21-04 04:45 PM

yay! i got them all! i win! i rock at teh internet! yes that's right, i managed to get them all mounted properly :D thanks for the help guys

Did you use the funky brackets?

pugg57 05-21-04 10:14 PM

yeah, i got all three of the funky brackets to fit perfectly. removed two of the stock brackets (front passanger side and the only driver side one). the long bracket mounted directly to the brace that the IC rests on the L-bracket mounts to the rear of the passanger side stock mounts. the funky one goes between the two (really oddly positioned and hard to tighten). i put the two bolts from the front passanger side bracket back into their holes for the sake of keep water out of whatever that was tapped in (looks to be a frame rail). if anyone is interested, i can take some REALLY up-close pictures of them tomorrow when i get home and post a quick "how to"
