I just recieved the JL ram air scoop, bent tube and flex tube and the clamps to connect to the bottom of the stock box. The problem is, most of the pictures in the instructions are worthless. It would be a much easier to install this kit if I had some pictures to go by. Anybody know where I can see some descent pics of this process.
Thanks

 

Uhm, i just installed mine last week. I guess i can go take some pictures for ya. Give me a few mins.
Ok first is the scoop. It bolts to the intercooler, remove the plastic fastner and bolt the short bracket there.

The other side of the scoop has a long bracket which bolts to the back side of the fender. Here is where it actually bolts.

And here is a farther back shot, you can see the long bracket.

 

ok, thanks Spank

 

Here is the hose clamp which bolts to the frame. Just remove one of the long bolts that holds the steering box? on and bolt it down here. I used the lower one, I think JL shows it using the top one. You can see where the pipe comes down and attaches to the elblow as well.

As far as taking out the stock airbox, I'm sure you can figure that part out. Just be careful with the vacuum lines on the bottom of the rubber hose.
And here is the JL box, after its all installed. It just fits in snugly.

 

This is a shot of the pipe coming up from the scoop.

And a shot of where it attaches to the box

And this is what the scoop looks like from the front.


Hope this helps. I know i didnt cover mounting the MAF to the box, but that part is pretty simple, just dont overtighten the bolts, and make sure you install the seal to keep dirt from getting in there. I used the one that was on the stock air box, between the box and the MAF.

 

here's a link to an install, pics included

What area(s), section(s), image(s) in the instructions are "worthless?"

Hummm, looking at the directions it looks like i ran my pipe on the wrong side of the radiator hoses, but it fit the best there. I might have to try it the other way around.

A lot of the pictures in the instructions are too light. I think they had the copier set wrong.

 

Question: Do you guys have any problems with the filter getting wet driving in the rain?

 

Thanks SpankDog for the pictures. I had installed the JL RamAir kit and it was rubbing my tire when I turned right hard. I talked to Mrs. JL on the phone and she was very nice and helpful but I could not see what I had done wrong until you posted your pics. Corrected my dumb error and now no rubbing. The pictures were so light in the insructions you couldn't see what to do. Thanks again!

No problem. I am glad that I could help.
