Using this Mishimoto air intake kit is a breeze. First, make sure your car is turned off and cooled down. You can install it using common hand tools in about an hour. Just follow the included instructions to bolt it on. When it comes to the optional airbox, you can choose to install it based on your preference for heat protection and engine bay appearance. For regular use, enjoy the increased power and the cool sound it makes when you accelerate. As for maintenance, the high - flow oiled air filter can be cleaned and reused. You should clean it periodically, depending on how much you drive and the conditions. If you notice a significant drop in performance or a change in the sound, it might be time to check the filter or the hose for any issues. Keep in mind that using the right fuel, like 93 octane as recommended for maximum power gains, will help the intake work at its best. And since it comes with a lifetime warranty, you can be confident in its quality and craftsmanship.
