DIY: Blitz SUS power intake
 

Start out by removing your OEM intake box.

1.
- undo clip(as depicted in red circle)
- push intake box directly backwards to undo 2 pop tabs which are in the front of the box assembly
- once the front two tabs are out, push the intake box assembly slightly to the back and pull upwards to undo 2 pop tabs which are underneath the box assembly
- loosen the clamp on the end of the throttle body which holds on to the MAF tube/intake box assembly

VOILA OEM intake box is out.

2.
- unscrew MAF sensor module from OEM MAF tube
DISCLAIMER : MAF sensor breaks really easily, it is very fragile and costs a fortune to replace.... so BECAREFUL!!!
- screw MAF sensor onto Blitz SUS power intake tube

3.
- use zip ties(provided by Blitz along with the intake kit) to fasten the two parts as circled in the attached picture to the tube as pointed in the attached picture

You could leave them dangling if you like but they are awefully close to the pulley system so i wouldnt recommend it :)

4.
Picture of the massive Blitz SUS power air cleaner(made completely of stainless steel... no foam no paper no nuthing :cool: )

5.
- cut foam pieces exactly the length of the outside edges Blitz SUS power intake box
- foam pieces come pre-slitted so they just go over the edges of the box and clips on

6.
-simply assemble the intake box by screwing in the two sidewalls

7.
- screw in L shaped bracket into metal strip in its predrilled hole

8.
- place the two 15mm spacers(provided along with the Blitz SUS power intake kit) over the two origional holes for the OEM intake box as pointed out in the attached picture

9.
- connect Blitz SUS power intake tube(with OEM MAF sensor attached) into throttle body and tighten clamp
- place Blitz SUS power intake box over origional OEM intake box's holes(over the 15mm spacers)
- put metal strip with L bracket(as shown in picture 7) over origional OEM intake box's holes
- stick the 2 long bolts as provided in the Blitz SUS power intake kit down the origional OEM intake box's holes and thru the two 15m spacers which should be underneath the Blitz SUS power intake box

10.
- attach silicon hose as provided with the kit onto the end of the Blitz SUS power intake tube
- tighten with provided hose clamp
- connect the end of silicon hose with the filter adapter
- tighten with provided hose clamp

11.
- slip on Blitz SUS power air cleaner filter
- tighten with provided hose clamp

VOILA Blitz SUS power intake kit INSTALLED !! :cool:

Thanks to Thew at Mazdaparts.com for this great new product !! :D

This should be the 2nd Blitz SUS power intake installed in North America so far :cool:

Is it a full system or just a "tube and filter" design?

What do you mean by "full system"? :confused:

enjoy :)

I was wondering if it replaced the upper rubber intake boot. I looked at the pics again and answer my question. nice job very well done. just don't know if I am ready to part with $435 for it.

Hey is the cover included? I don't see any cover like HKS or K&N alike. U might want to add more tapes to cover the gap of the pipe, it will avoid the heat to sneak in through.

Reply me the cover thx.

Apologies for the thread ressurection :)

Does anyone know what the parts circled in red are and whether they are needed once the stock air box has been removed?
