Install Instructions for 83-1017

Start by jacking up the front of the vehicle and remove the (2) Front Wheels from the vehicle.

Driver & Passenger Side

Using a 7mm socket, go ahead and remove all screws holding in the outer edge of the wheel-well liner.

Once done, remove the 10mm holding the liner to the wheel-well.

Driver & Passenger Side

Using a flathead screwdriver, go ahead and remove all the push-pins holding the liner in to wheel-well.

Unclip the (2) Sensors on the Intake Tube by pulling out the locking tab, then disconnect the sensor from the connector.

Remove the Air Box from the Vehicle. 

Start by removing the Hose Clamps on the Intake Tube. 

Remove the Intake Tube(s) from the Air Intake Assembly from the engine bay.

Using an extension and 10mm socket, go ahead and unbolt the (4) bolts holding the air box.

Loosen the Rotational Clamp on the upper side of the Cold Side Intercooler Pipe.

Tip: Push the collar counter-clockwise using a flat-head screwdriver. Then pull the Cold Side pipe off the top side.

Loosen the Rotational Clamp on the lower side of the Cold Side Intercooler Pipe.

Tip: Push the collar counter-clockwise using a flat-head screwdriver. Then pull the cold side pipe off the low side.

Next, lets move to the Hot Side.

Using an 11mm socket, go ahead and undo the stock t-bolt clamps at the top end of the engine, at the turbo.

Now, lets move down to the lower t-bolt clamps on the Intercooler Pipe. For this, we recommend using multiple extensions and accessing the t-bolts from the top.

Next, pry off the lower cold side pipe from the intercooler. 

Tip: The factory coupler could remain stuck to the intercooler. If this is the case, we recommend cutting of the fixed OEM clamp and coupler to remove it. If the coupler is still stuck on the intercooler, we recommend prying it off with a flathead screwdriver.

Next, its time to remove the Temperature Sensor from the factory cold side pipe using a 14mm wrench. Once done, go ahead and pry off the connector from the tube using a flathead screwdriver.

Install the OEM Temperature Sensor onto the S&B Cold Side Intercooler Pipe.

Install the upper coupler (w/o t-bolt clamps) on the S&B Cold Side Pipe to make the install of the cold side pipe onto the throttle body a bit easier.

Remove the air box support from the passenger fender well area to allow for more space to tighten the T-bolt clamps. For this you'll need a 10mm socket to remove the (3) bolts holding it to the frame.

Using a Push Rivet Removal Tool, remove the push rivet holding a wire harness to the air box base frame.

Now its time to install the hose clamps on the cold side intercooler pipe.

Ensure that the hose clamp with the yellow spring goes at the top end of the upper cold side coupler.

 Then install the remaining t-bolt clamp on the low end of the S&B Cold Side Intercooler Pipe. Then tighten and torque down both t-bolt clamps to 76 inch lbs..

Re-install the air box support using the (3) bolts from an earlier step.

Re-install the air box into the factory location, then tighten down the bolts holding the air box to the mounting bracket from the previous step.

Then install the air filter, intake tube(s), air box lid (if your intake has one), and hose clamps to reconnect the intake system.

Reconnect the (2) Sensors located on the intake tube.

*One of the sensor will be from the Temperature Sensor.

The Cold Side install is now complete. Now, let's move on to installing the Hot Side Intercooler Pipe.

Install the lower section of the S&B Hot Side Intercooler Pipe from the wheel well by feeding it up and behind the upper control arm.

Install one of the step-down couplers on the low side of the S&B Hot Side Intercooler Pipe, connecting the intercooler pipe to the intercooler inlet.

*Ensure that the (2) t-bolt clamps are pointed vertically to make tightening them easier.

Next, assemble the upper section of the hot side pipe with both couplers as seen in the picture.

Then install the upper hot side pipe assembly onto the lower hot side pipe assembly.

Then tighten down the upper most t-bolt clamp located at the turbo. Then work your way down the pipe, tightening each t-bolt clamp as you go downward.

*Ensure that each coupler is fully seated onto the intercooler pipes to prevent air leaks.

Using a 3in extension, tighten down the (2) t-bolt clamps at the intercooler inlet at the low end of the S&B Hot Side Intercooler Pipe.

Torque all T-Bolt clamps to 76 in. lbs..

Re-install both Driver & Passenger side wheel-well liners.

Torque all wheel well lug nuts to factory specifications.

Verify all connection points are tight and secure. The installation is now complete.
