Remove the nut and bracket, shown in Figure 7, as theses parts are not needed for your AWE intake.

In some vehicles the forward upper control arm bolt protrudes into the passenger side engine bay area, as shown in Figure 8-1. This interferes with the intake fitment so this bolt should be swapped with the shorter driver side forward upper control arm bolt. Figure 6.3 shows the swapped control arm bolts.
Figure 8-2, shows the length difference in the driver and passenger bolt.

Reinstall the hood release, shown by Arrow B in Figure 15. About the AirGateTM Lid: Removing this panel will increase the presence of sounds that resonate from the turbo under boost. Installing this panel shields the intake and filter from the higher air temperatures that are present in the engine bay while reducing the sounds that come from the intake.

This is a re-usable air filter that can be cleaned when dirty and put back into service. Please inspect the air filter element every 25,000 miles for integrity. Clean every 50,000 miles under normal operating conditions, sooner in dusty conditions. Contact AWE to purchase a filter maintenance kit. Under heat, carbon fiber may mature to present a gold hue - this is a normal reaction to spirited driving.
