Question about spool CAI

[jonnydoe48]

i notice there are 2 electrical plugs that go into the stock airbox. one goes to the MAF sensor and the other goes to the the actual airbox. My question is..where do i put the plug that goes to the airbox on the spool cai? i was looking at injen pics and i think it shows that they have a place to put it, but for the spool cai sitting in my room, there is nothing?

drill a hole and stick the gromet from the air box in the pipe.

 

[jonnydoe48]

i thought no drilling was required?

man... i was gonna buy the spool intake... but no dice if i gotta drill it myself...

i'll pay the extra few bucks and get the injen

 

[jonnydoe48]

well, with the injen i think you have to drill the coolant res. bracket anyway..i think? shrug.

 

[prospeed]

yes with the injen you need to drill the bracket. or you can just let the sensor hang down in the hole.

 

[jonnydoe48]

what does the second sensor do, anyway?

 

[spoolinmp3]

jonnydoe48 if you want, send me your intake and I can put a hole in it for ya
I just dont send it out like that because it stains the pipe when we put a hole in it (stainless will change amber when we heat it up)
But I can easily mod it for ya

air intake temp

 

[jonnydoe48]

i see. heh. how big does the hole have to be?

 

[spoolinmp3]

the size of a nickle exactly

 

[jonnydoe48]

[changedman]

Terry:

will you drill the hole prior to sending me the intake? I dont care much about discoloration.

I plan on powdercoating it anyways
