Cosmos CAI / Brake Duct?

[beefey]

Yes I did a seach b4 posting this but I still need to ask the question. It doesnt say anything about removing the brake duct per the instructions that came with the unit.

DOES THE BRAKE DUCT NEED TO BE REMOVED FOR COSMOS CAI INSTALLATION?

-Thanks

No.

Then I dont understand... Maybe because I have an M3 bumper on a 323is?
Any other suggestions?

Just leave the brake duct in there. The intake shouldn't go that far down.

you don't need to remove the duct, but the filter sits pretty close. cut a flap in the duct for the "ramming" effect. rev to 6,500-7k and marvel at the sound.:D

Confirmed... I'm retarded the second horn was in the way... I was hitting on the brake duct because I had it positioned to "upright". Thanks for all your help I really do appreciate it!

I think I need to make the bracket... the one supplied just looks ghetto.
