1989-93 Mustang BBK Blackout Cold Air Intake Kit - V8 by BBK

Bolted right on and came with all required mounting hardware! I'm using it with a holly 75mm throttle body and abaco 85mm MAF, all worked well together, only needed a larger hose clamp to make MAF work, rubber connector stretched around just fine.

The CAI was easy to install all hardware needed was included.

Up to the point where you are installing the bracket and filter, the kit fits like a glove.

It took a little longer than the suggested time to install because the instructional video tells you to fit the filter onto the tube from the underside of the car as a last step. Do not do this!

Follow these steps to make it more painless and save a ton of time:

1. Install everything starting from the throttle body to the mass air sensor.
2. Install the bracket to the fenderwell loosely.
3. The filter mouth is too small for the tube it is supposed to attach to, so you have to fit it on outside of the car with help of another person and/or a screwdriver for leverage. Then fish the filter and tube from under the bumper, through the black bracket. Don't tighten the clamp on the filter just yet - you'll need to rotate the filter around inside the bumper to allow for the other end of the tube to rotate into the mass air sensor.
NOTE: The fenderwell tube is slightly different geometry on both sides even though it looks almost symmetrical. You want the long end to go through the fenderwell (if I remember correctly).
4. Attach the tube to the mass air sensor.
5. Secure the bracket and filter clamps

Make sure you have all fenderwell parts that came stock with the vehicle in there. They keep water from splashing up into where the new filter is located. If you don't have them and you run the car in the rain the intake will dirty up, car will bog down, and your mass air/throttle body will need to be removed and cleaned.

It sounds like I have a lot of negative things to say, but it's only about the install instructions and less about the parts itself. The blackout kit looks great, and for corrosion purposes I'm glad I got it over the chrome one. The clamps and gaskets look great and it should last a long while!

This was my first purchase from Late Model Restoration and I am ready to buy again. Receiving emails detailing each step in the delivery process was exemplary. The unpacking was perfect with all items accounted for and carefully secured by expanding foam and scrap paper. Installation was simple and yes, DO attach your filter to the hose before you slide it into the fenderwell. This cold air intake is slick, perhaps a little heavy but that spells quality to me.

Great,easy to install but it's metal so it's a little heavy,that being said it has it's pros and cons. Metal is good because won't break get weak and such but the weight does kind of affect it if you don't have the mass air meter bracket to support it. Don't really need it but does help a lot. It does look really good specially if you have the trick flow black intake. I really like the blue rubber sleeves and they have bbk engraved on them.
