7. Remove front wire harness from the factory air deflectors (remember do not destroy these as you
will want to reinstall them later). These are plastic slide clamps, you can slide them to unlock them,
and they slide side to side to unlock.
STEPS 8 AND 9 ARE FOR CARS WITH FOG LIGHTS ONLY!
8. From beneath your car, on both sides of the shroud you will find 2 small access panels (5) 7-8mm bolts
each. You will need to remove these to gain access to the fog lights. (picture 6) . These are located
at the inner most front of each front tire; they bind the underbelly and wheel well in place
9. Remove fog lights and factory air deflectors. To remove fog light YOU UST have removed the
access panels from step8, you will see (1) 10mm bolt holding (1) big black bracket that has a hanger
assembly attached to it that holds the fog light. Simply remove the 1 10mm bolt and the entire
assembly will drop down as a whole, it will even leave paint marks for you to follow during reassembly.
10. Z06 cars remove the sheet screws from the screen assembly and reverse factory tab location(2)
tabs on each side (picture 7)
11. Now install the ram air scoops one at a time (on side has vstrip attached leave loose for now) if you
have a standard C-5 (non Z06) you should reuse the factory bolts in the outside mounting holes
instead of longer ones provided in kit and finger tighten(picture 8 & 8a). Gen 3 kits have new
gaskets and the V-strip is pre attached to one side of the duct assembly for you.THE SPACERS-
there is NO set in stone alignment on a C-5 so use this as a guide. We do not fit any spacers on
97-2000 cars 01-04’s we use 1 or 2 max however there is variation from car to car , so simply use
them if needed , try to re- use factory screws if standard c5 or if Z-06 use the shorter screws provided
in the kit. (The spacers are there to change the pitch of the unit up or down for proper air bridge alignment)
12. Once both ram tubes are installed finger tight only, now attach vstrip to other tunnel, and tighten all
4 bolts (picture 9)
13. Lift scoop assembly and have 2nd person tighten ram air tube screws. It is best not to tighten the
screws all the way yet as this will allow you to mock up the unit at this stage and check overall alignment
14. Install air filter into air box You will now be installing the new air filter into the upper air box.Start in
the middle and push it in from there, it will be very tight around the outer perimeter.
15.Attach air box to ram air tubes (sticker side up) and connect to ram air tubes using t-latches
(picture 14)
16. Connect air box to AFÖ.. see pictures for correct fit (pictures 10, 11, 12, 13)
17. Reinstall shroud and fog lights access panels and air dam
18. Tighten crossover bridge and proceed with testing
19. Standard ’97 – 2000 C5 AS (mass airflow sensor) goes directly inside air box. 2001 to current
models will fit flush and you will use the silicon hose provided.
