Tools Required For Installation:
Flat Head Screwdriver
8mm, 10mm Socket
Ratchet & Extension
3/32”, 5/32” Allen Wrench
#T20 Security bit (Included)
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Disconnect the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor wiring harness. Using the supplied T-20 Security bit, remove the two screws and the Mass Air Flow sensor from the tube (save the sensor for reuse). Loosen the hose clamps on each end of the factory intake tube assembly.

Please read this instruction sheet BEFORE proceeding. Excess oil must be removed from filter before installation. Blot using paper towels on front and backside of filter until excess oil is removed.
1. Using a socket or an open-end wrench, disconnect the negative terminal connection on the vehicle battery.
2. Remove the black muffler box located on top of the throttle body that connects to the factory rubber / plastic flex hose. You will need a #30 Torx bit.

Installation Instructions:
1. Disconnect negative battery cable. Then loosen all three factory hose clamps located at the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter and both factory intake tube.
2. Remove black cover on throttle body by pulling up and sliding towards front of truck. It is held by two grommets. Gently pry the radiator hose bracket from the factory intake tube assembly and remove the tube from the vehicle. A flat head screwdriver may be used.
3. Remove the factory air filter base and lid as an assembly. There are no bolts, just friction mounts, so just pull straight up on the air filter base to remove. Then remove the plate that held the base and lid. There are (5) 10mm bolts to unscrew to remove the plate. After everything is removed it should look like the picture above.

Installation Step:
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Using a 5/16” socket or flat screwdriver, loosen the hose clamp that holds the factory airbox to the flexible intake tube.
2. Using a #20 Torx bit, remove 2 screws holding the Mass Air Flow sensor to the factory airbox tube. Remove the MAF and set it aside. Remove the factory filter minder and grommet from the factory airbox. Save them for later use in step #10.
3. Slide the flexible intake tube off of the factory airbox and then rock the airbox back and forth to free it from the mounting grommets, next lift it straight up and remove it from the vehicle.

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.

Getting Started
a) Make sure vehicle is parked on a level surface. Set parking brake.
b) Disconnect negative battery terminal from the battery.
c) If engine has run within the past two hours, let it cool down.

Removal of the stock intake system.
a) Before removing any of the O.E. components, label each individual part so that no components become mixed up during the installation process.

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.

1. Disconnect both negative battery cables. Unlatch all four factory clips on the factory airbox.
2. Remove factory air filter by separating the inlet and outlet sections of the assembly.
3. The filter is held in place by two rubber grommets on the bottom.(Note: make sure factory grommets remain in lower air box support.)

We hope you are satisfied with the look and performance. You may use any polish or wax on the pipe as it’s painted with the same high quality paint as your car. It is also recommended to use some tire shine on the rubber elbow. Take your time and it will be a smooth install. Please review complete instructions prior to installing.

Step#
1 Verify you have all of the following parts included in the kit: (1) JLT Painted Pipe with IAC, PVC, and Vacuum line fittings, (1) 45 degree Rubber Elbow w/ clamps to connect throttle body to JLT Pipe, (1) Silicone Reducer w/ clamps to connect JLT pipe to MAF, (1) JLT heat shield, (1) Billet MAF Adaptor with bolts, (1) 4×12” S&B Air Filter, (1) 5/8” Hose, (1) 3/4” Hose, (1) Vacuum Line, (1) Silicone Spacer (for use on early Lightnings with 80mm MAF only)

The AEM Short Ram Air 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 Short Ram Air Intake Systems deliver maximum performance gains through lightweight, all- aluminum, mandrel-bent tubing that is tuned in both length and diameter. The aluminum will not crack in extended use like plastic. The tube length and diameter are matched for each specific engine to give power over a broad RPM range. Unlike plastic systems that use a continually diverging cross-section, we take advantage of the acoustical energy in the inlet duct to promote cylinder filling during the intake valve- opening event. Every intake is coated with a high-gloss, heat-reducing Zirconia based powder coating.
