The AEM Brute Force Intake System is the result of extensive development on a wide variety of cars. It is the most advanced short pipe air intake system on the market. Each system is specifically engineered for its particular application. All AEM Brute Force Intake Systems deliver maximum performance gains through the lightweight, all- aluminum, mandrel-bent tubing that is tuned in both length and diameter. The tube length and diameter are matched for each specific engine to give power over a broad RPM range. Every intake is coated with a high-gloss, heat-reducing Zirconia based powder coating. This special blend of powder coating helps reduce heat penetration, which in turn reduces the temperature of the inlet air charge. The cooler inlet air temperature translates to more power during the combustion process because cool air is denser than warm air. The air mass flow to the engine is increased because of the increased airflow and reduced inlet temperature, which translates to more power.

Removal of the stock intake system.
a) Stock system installed on vehicle.
b) Unplug the inlet air temperature (IAT) and mass air flow (MAF) sensors.
c) Loosen the four wing nuts that secure the air box lid to the lower air box.
d) Loosen the hose clamp securing the stock intake tube to the plastic throttle body adapter. Remove the entire air box lid / MAF sensor / intake tube assembly from the vehicle.
e) Remove the IAT sensor from the stock rubber intake tube. Set the sensor aside for use later in the installation.
f) Loosen the hose clamps on either side of the MAF sensor. Remove the MAF sensor from the assembly and set aside in a safe place. Use care to avoid damaging the screen or any other part of the MAF sensor. The rubber gasket on the air box side of the MAF sensor will not be used with the AEM intake
g) Remove the lower air box mounting nut. Remove the lower air box from the vehicle. Remove the lower air box mounting stud. This stud will be replaced with a rubber mount for the AEM intake pipe later in the installation.
h) Remove the plastic air box mounting bracket located next to the radiator. The bracket is released by sliding it straight up.
