    DIY: Power Plenum Install

    my engine bay is dirty because i have no outside faucet, no money, and i live in the north east, also it was winter time hence the hoodie, so unless you want to clean my engine bay STFU, i know its dirty


    First you will need to prop the hood open for easier access ;)


    (I removed my front bumper but i only have 4 bolts holding it on so it was just easier for me.)



    Then you need to remove the radiator support, there is a little 10mm bolt at the bottom that is a bitch to get to. you also need to unbolt the radiator and ac condenser from the support, but i shouldn't have to tell you that.




    You will then be able to tilt the radiator forward and freely get to the 6, 12mm bolts on the underside of the intake.





    Once those are removed replace the intake plate with he spacer and remember the gasket, you will replace the bolts with the ones int he kit.

    Now your done Installing and you can just redo the steps to put everything back together and your ready!.

    BTW, this is what i found in mine

    Clean your fucking engine bay Good God!lol. I have not ever seen anyone remove the radiator support to do this. That is interesting. You think it is easier than removing the intake and TB? So you found oil and a socket in your spacer or just the oil?lol

    The oil is a normal condition, a function of the PCV system. A catch can placed between the PCV and the IM can be used to allow all that vaporous oil to recondense there, instead of the intake mani.

    I was thinking of getting this when I did my Hondata gasket, but didn't want to spend the money on it.
