aps fmic 525 & aps 70 mm cai install?

subyman99 · 03-18-2007, 12:49 PM

hey guys, ive put the aps 525 fmic on my car and now trying to install the aps 70mm cai, talk about a tough thing to install! ive been fighting with the cai for about an hour trying to get it to fit with the intercooler piping, the filter keeps hitting the piping and bends the filter all weird, along with rubbing bad! anyone have suggestions or how they did it? thanks!!!

Hey bro,

Like what car you putting this on? It might help

I'm guessing it might be on a 04 STi. Wild shot though.

I believe the instructions have you install the CAI first because of the way the pipe routes. Don't quote me on this I will be doing this install in a couple of weeks.
