Question Renntech air box installation question?

How does the stock Y intake tube come off that is located at
the back of the engine compartment? Do you just pull it off?
Is there a clamp or bolt?

Took my carbonio intake off but didn't have a clue how to get the
Y tube off.

Thanks,
Mike

Michael,

There are two taps on each side of the y pipe at the end. so just follow the y pipe until it meets the intake manifold and you'll feel the tab. Pull left and right accordlying on each side and it should just pop right up.

I'll be at the shop for another 30 minutes or email me and I'll give you a call to walk you through it.

James,

I appreciate the tip.

I'll give it a try later today.

Thanks,
