It comes with everything you need... but no diagram. You will not need to remove anything... you can just thread it through.

There should be a diagram sticker in your engine bay, or you can look at clark's. But just replace one line at a time and you should be fine.

you're replacing all the skinny, hard plastic lines. They all look the same. There are a few off the intake J boot, one in the upper right corner of bay (looking in from front), a few go through the intake arms, and connect on top of the fuel rail on the big round thing.

Maybe, but certainly not very easily. It would likely be faster and easier to take it off.

FWIW, that is a separate job from the lindsey kit, but if you have the intake off it as a good a time as any to do both.

They have an excellent diagram on their site that shows where all the lines go. Basically, just replace them one at a time and you should be fine. Just make sure that you follow the right diagram when hooking yours back up.

As for the ICV - I dunno how you'd change it out without removing the intake. I considered the same thing and I could barely get the power connector off to do some testing let alone get the damn thing out of there. If you're not sure your ICV is bad, then you could always just spray a little carb cleaner into both hoses that go into it - run some compressed air through it and let it sit for a bit to clean it out. Then, spray a little WD40 in there and start it back up and see if that helped.

Yes you can. I have changed this on 4 cars with the intake on, most recently on disasterman's race car. If you still have the factory air box and IC pipe, those have to come off. After that with some maneuvering the ISV come out the front under the intake.

Guys I think he's referring to an NA. No mbc needed there and the lindsey diagrams won't be much help.

Just replace what you see.

You will have extra hose (5 ft or so), and one extra T connector.
