I bought a Revi from the flea market but the seller did not have the original instructions. I have the air box out and batter tray out but having issues getting the revi installed.

Do you install the intake in one piece?
Also what is the hole on the bottom left corner of the intake for?
What do you with with the wire that were attahed to the stock air box?
Where does the vacum hose go that was originally under the oem box?

Thanks!

 

hmm i have mine here somewhere you should come over and get them

once i find them

 

haha i have no air box! I do not think I should drive anywhere

BTW does the bumper have to be removed?

 

yes absolutely - you have to remove the vfad and then you bolt the RB box in place by reacing thru the front opening and dropping the bolt/screw thru the hole you mention.

im cleaning the garage to get ready for a garage sale tomorrow. ill post back here later if i find them and we can figure out how to get them to you

 

I have it in pdf format. It's 6.5 megs. Send me a PM with your email address and I'll mail a copy out.

 

Thanks!

BTW the intake is now in but now I'm wondering if something was not installed correctly.

 

post up some pics so that we can see what you did. I have a copy of the install instructions if you didnt get it from mysql.

 

thanks, rx8honey. I'm downloading them now.

BTW I started car and no CEL lights. It did not sound any different up to 4,000 rpms. I will post some pics of my hack of an install.

 

After reviewing the instructions, I'm going to start from scratch tomorrow to make sure everything was done correctly.

I forced the opening of the revi over the vfad so I'm sure that is not right

Also I did not install the screen from the oem intake on the revi.

 

sorry i never did find mine

 

Ummm yeah. You need to redo your install. That screen is vital.

 

No worries. I appreciate the help

 

I did not drive the car anywhere today because I knew it would have to be redone. I bought a revi air duct today so I'm wondering if I should just wait now and do it all at once.

 

The revi install is simple. Sounds like you have it half way done so why not complete it?
How long will it take for your air duct to get there?

 

complete the revi install. then when the duct gets here put it on. i could even help if you want.

 

Alright you guys convinced me to finish it now! I'm in the garage (gotta love wireless) working on it now.

Zoom44, I may take you up on your generous offer!

 

Haha. That's what friends are for. Peer pressure :D

I'm sure zoom has you covered. My job here is done.

 

disconnecting the fog lights is proving to be a pain in the butt

 

yep,

but after you get the first one it is easy..


beers

 

Got the fog lights disconnected Just had to not use RB's instructions.

Now I'm having issues removing the highlight vfad hose.

 

pm me if you need some help.. needle nose pliers.

beers..

 

Thanks. I will try the needle nose before sending you a PM.

 

Just got back from a test drive. It definitely sounds more agressive at WOT and no noticeable difference when driving through the neighborhood. I'm looking forward to getting the air duct installed and then getting the pcm flashed.

Thanks everyone for your help!
