For the modification, you need to obtain the complete kit. Start by disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery, then disconnect the sensor connector located on the air duct. Completely remove the air filter box by detaching all connected hoses, then take it out of the engine bay. Prepare the new accessory by carefully following the attached instructions.

Insert the new filter support in place of the old box and connect the various hoses. Place the sensor in its new housing and secure it with screws.

Insert the new air filter, connect the sensor, and reactivate the battery. Perform a test to check the vehicle's performance.
