Default F Sport Intake Install

Does anyone have a copy of the PDF to install the F Sport Intake?

Unfortunately the instructions used to be on Sewell, but the site is now down.

Thank you!

it's a straight forward install. just remove the stock parts and replace them w/ the new ones. move the maf sensor from the stock box cover and move it to the f sport cover; reuse the stock screws if they didn't give you screws with the new kit. you'll have to move the cable as well. remove the stock air box cover. to remove the engine cover, just pull straight up as evenly as possible (connected by 3 prongs). you'll see where the plastic intake tube is connected to the intake manifold. loosen the clamps that hold the tube (both ends: the manifold and stock air box sides) by loosening the screws. remove the vacuum tube that connected to the intake tube (you'll install it on the aluminum tube that comes w/ the kit). once all the clamps are loose you can remove the stock tube. to install the aluminum tube, put the smooth coupler to manifold. slide two clamps over the coupler. don't tighten them until everything is installed. slide the aluminum tube (curved side) to the coupler (you can add the coupler to the tube before mating it to the manifold if that's easier for you). take the other coupler (the accordion looking piece) slide a clamp on one end and mate it to the aluminum tube. add a clamp to the other side of the coupler and mate it to the air box cover. once everything fits properly, tighten all the clamps till they're snug. attach the vacuum hose to the aluminum tube. if i'm not mistaken, that should be it.
