Installation Instructions : F8X M3/M4: Page 6

20. Starting from the right hand side (as you look at the engine) the stock duct opening has
two holes which will be used to locate and secure the new duct.

21. Take the right side duct (larger one) and locate the holes at the back over the holes shown
previously on the stock duct opening. The new duct should go OVER the stock one.

.

.

22. The right side duct should sit like this. Now secure it using 2 push rivets.....

23. Starting on the side closest to the engine - align the hole on the new duct with the hole on
the stock opening and push the rivet through. Secure by clicking the head in fully.

.
.

Installation Instructions : F8X M3/M4: Page 7

24. Now do the same with the other side. You will need to push the duct away from thechassis metal work to get access to the hole. Once secured – you will notice that the duct still
has some movement – this is required for allowing adjustment on the intake housing.

25. Looking at the other side – identify the 2 holes on the stock opening which will again be used
for location and securing the left side duct.

.

.

26. Locate the left duct onto the stock opening. The stock plastic opening should go INSIDE
the new duct.

27. Use the 2 push rivets to again secure the duct in place. Press the rivet heads in fully to lock.
Again, there will be some movement in the duct - which is required.

30. Identify the left and right side intakes. The left side has the mounting bracket secured
around the bottom of the opening. The right side has it secure around the top as shown. The
brackets are also a different shape.
.

31. Assemble the LHS intake with the LHS tube (shorter tube) with the 80mm silicon coupler and2 hose clamps. Orient the tube as shown here and in the next photo. When pushing the siliconcoupler onto the intake – DO NOT PUSH ON THE FILTER ITSELF. Ensure airflow arrow on sensoris as shown.

Installation Instructions : F8X M3/M4: Page 9

32. Orient the tube as shown. Tighten Hose clamp on the housing, leave the clamp on
the tube loose enough to allow the tube to still be rotated.

33. Lower the intake assembly into the left side and push the tube into the silicon coupler installedpreviously. Locate the opening of the intake into the duct installed previously.

.

34. Push the tube all the way into the silicon so that the flange on the tube meets thesilicon all the way around. Don’t tighten yet.
.

35. Push the boss on the mounting bracket into the stock rubber grommet fully. Ensure the housing
is positioned evenly into the seal of the duct.

Installation Instructions : F8X M3/M4: Page 10

35. Now tighten the clamp on the tube as shown – ensure there is no gap between
the flange on the tube and the silicon.

35. Now tighten the lower clamp on the tube – ensure there is no gap between the flange on thecarbon tube and the silicon. MAKE SURE THIS CLAMP IS CLOSE TO THE CARBON TUBE AND STRAIGHT
ALL THE WAY AROUND.

.
.

36. Finally – reconnect the MAF sensor plug – there should be enough slack in the loom
from removing it from the clip earlier. Ensure the connector is clicked in all the way.

Installation Instructions : F8X M3/M4: Page 11

37. Assemble the right side intake with the longcarbon tube as shown using the remaining siliconcoupler and hose clamps. When pushing the siliconcoupler onto the housing DO NOT PUSH ON THE
FILTER ITSELF. Tighten the clamp on the housing,leave the clamp on the tube loose to allow it torotate.

43. Insert breather tube into place – it should click into place. Reconnect MAF sensor plug
ensuring it has engaged fully.
.

44. Rotate the carbon tube to allow a gap over the fan shroud. The hose clamps on either side of thistube should still be loose to allow rotation.
.

Carbon Flange

45. Place the strut brace into position to check for clearance above the carbon tube. Rotate
tube if necessary. There should be a small gap between the tube and the strut brace andbetween the tube and fan shroud below. Remove strut brace.
.

46. Once positioned correctly, tighten the hose clamps on both sides of the carbon tube. Ensure there isno gap between the flange on the carbon and the silicon as shown. Reinstall strut brace with all 13mmbolts and the 10mm bolt.
