Tools needed:
-rachet
-10mm socket
-extension for socket
Parts needed:
-Vulcan turbo manifold
-Throttle body gasket(use exhaust gasket maker)
-shorter bolts for the head(1/2" shorter)*
-shorter bolts for the throttle body**
-wire loom
-electrical tape
-1/2" heater hose ~2ft
-1/2" dual barb adapter
-hose clamps
*if you dont have shorter bolts u can use a but and run the bolt thru the nut, and the nut can take up the extra space
**i recommend you take the manifold to a parts store, and get some studs and nuts for it, run studs thru them, and tighten the TB down with nuts instead of the stock bolts
Here's a pic of what i started with:
Step one:
Remove the the Stock Manifold, there is a how to on this already
Step two:
undo the wire loom on the stock TB wires and the MAF, both join into the same bigger loom, undo that one too, keep undo'ing the loom and electrical tape until you have enough slack to move the harness to the opposite side of the car, there is enough room, took me less than 5 mins to do this, than when your done, re loom it and tape it
Step three:
transfer over all the gasket rings from the old manifold over to the new one
be careful not to tear the damn things, as you can see, i kinda tore one lol
Step four:
Install the new intake manifold, bolt it down
Step five:
-brake booster
extend the brake booster hose, use the dual barb fitting to join the stock hose to the heater hose, once you do that, clamp it, than run it to the 1/2 nipple on the manifold, once you do that, cut off excess slack, and connect to it, clamp it down, and thats done
-MAP sensor
take the MAP out of the stock manifold, take off that orange gasket thing that goes around it, and than connect a line to another nipple on the manifold, and run it into the nipple on the MAP, clamp it down, and MAP is done
-2 other nipples: those i would recommend to be for a BOV and a BOOST gauge
-EVAP canister: i recommend to not connect it to the manifold, this lets off fumes from the gas tank, just throw a hose on it and route it to face the ground below it(does not apply to LSJ's, just connect it to your TB like normal)
Step six:
connect the Throttle body to the manifold, and tighten it down, make sure to put the gasket in, and tighten that thing down, connect the TB harness and you should look like this
Step seven:
Run you intake how ever you want to run it, i use my injen intake on this test set up, but its up to you where you go from here
More finished pics:
Lastly, use how to at ur own discretion
**car is to sensitive, will not run right untuned**
***n/a base models may be able to run a LSJ intake w/this model...and boosted models could too, and connect their cold side charge piping the the intake inlet...
