I'm expecting my JCW CAI to be on my front porch today. I have scanned NAM for all posts concerning this install. I have a few unanswered questions.

Removing the old box, I have not seen much on this. It appears you need to remove the ECU? Is this difficult?

The White/Red wire quandary? Is it a white wire with red stripe or a Red wire with white stripe? I'm assuming the White with red stripe.

Thanks

 

Do you have the The Official JCW Intake Install PDF?

 

Yeah, I've been all over that document. I assumes that the old intake has been removed and says nothing about the ECU

 

Check this out

As for the wire, I don't remember.... sorry.

 

ECU just pulls out of the plastic cavity. Just leave it in until you are ready to swap it, you don't want it laying around or dropping it .

 

Just open up your hood...its REAL straight forward...

 

Installed but no workie.
I followed steps fond later on today.
I don;t think it is the slice because I would assume if that wire was cut it would through a CEL. As far as the red wire I found good instructions and followed them. The Vacuum line is tight but hooked up.

I guess tomorrow I'll dig around a bit more.

 

Just take the flap off =P and order a filter from GT Tuning

 

FIXED IT!!

The solenoid came unattached from the flapper. I should have inspected a little better.

Thanks to Greatbear and everyone else for some good posting and advice!
