You will remove your factory airbox, which houses the MAF sensor enclosure, and install the provided adapter. Simply transfer your OEM MAF sensor to the new adapter to complete the setup.
About the Adapter (Manufacturing Details)
The adapter is produced using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)—also known as Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF)—a professional additive manufacturing process where thermoplastic polymers are deposited layer-by-layer to create strong, functional parts.
Key characteristics:
-
Constructed from high-quality thermoplastic filament
-
Layer-by-layer build results in a naturally textured, slightly wavy surface
-
Small features (threads, small holes) may require minor post-processing
-
Can be professionally finished through sanding, polishing, priming, painting, vapor smoothing, epoxy coating, or metal plating
This process ensures a durable, lightweight part capable of handling daily use under normal engine bay temperatures.
Why Replace Your Factory Air Box?
-
Increased horsepower
-
Quicker throttle response and improved acceleration
-
Better fuel efficiency
-
Deeper, more aggressive intake sound
-
Enhanced engine-bay appearance
-
Reduced filter costs—cleanable and reusable
Installation Notes
-
Simple installation; primarily requires removal of the stock airbox
-
Tools needed: screwdrivers and socket wrenches
-
Typical install time: under 1 hour
-
YouTube offers multiple airbox-removal tutorials for these models
