Let the install commence (hope you're ready for this photo overload):
Stock plenum/airbox removed:
It was Cinco de Mayo, so a margarita was necessary:
Blow by, what?!:
Dirty throttle bodies:
Removed and cleaned the ICV while it was accessible:
Clean throttle bodies!:
New Turner Motorsport throttle body boots installed:
ICV cleaned and reinstalled:
Swapped rubber mounts from stock box to the new Karb box:
Carbon Fiber sexiness:
Turner IAT kit supposedly fits all CSL intakes....EXCEPT the sensor they include 100% does not fit the Karbonius box:
THIS is the sensor I actually need. Waiting to hear back from Turner on whether or not they'll refund me for the incorrect sensor and swap with this one:
Needed to temporarily install the sensor somewhere until I get the correct one, so the tuner suggested putting it here for now:
Some fabrication (lol) work was required for the new intake to fit. Trimmed this plastic piece back about 1/4":
New CSL box installed:
Remote tuning time (courtesy of HTE Performance):
Along with the Alpha-N (CSL) tune (needed because I'm no longer running the factory MAF), I also opted for the cold start delete and a very mild burble (I was a bit skeptical, but he suggested I try it out and I am GLAD I did...it's so subtle, yet so perfect between shifts).
And tuned and all put back together:
