Remove the 4 grommets holding the front air scoop. Simply push down on the grommets for them to unclip.
Once done, go ahead and remove the scoop.
Disconnect the MAP Sensor.
Remove the clip holding the MAP Sensor harness to the air box.

Remove the stock air intake assembly from the vehicle.
Remove the MAP Sensor from the stock air intake.
Begin putting together your S&B Air Intake by installing the Front Scoop screen.
Install the S&B Air Filter into the air box. Once in, go ahead and pull the filter through to where the filter flange is showing (as seen in the picture).
Install the front scoop molding onto the air box assembly.
Flip the box over and install the three grommets on to the bottom of the air box.

This intake kit comes with two box plug options.
Side Inlet (Shown): Allows for more air through fender opening, slightly louder. The side inlet of the air box also works with OEM snorkels.
Side Plug: Reduces noise, but at the cost of reduced airflow.
Install the S&B Air Box into the engine bay. Ensure that all the grommets are lined up and the intake tube is seated properly.
Tip: To make sure the air box is fully seated, you can feel the grommets popping through the floor of the air box.
Install the front scoop extension
4Runner Owners: There is an included front scoop extension in order for you to securely attach the scoop to the core support.
Connect the MAP Sensor to the S&B Intake Tube.
Using an 8mm socket, please tighten the hose clamps holding the intake tube to the turbo.
Use a zip-tie to keep the MAP Sensor harness out of the way.
Please verify that everything is tight and secure
Reconnect the negative battery cable to the negative battery terminal.
Your install is now complete.
