good going, you will love the sound when you get it on. i have one. easy install. take a look at the how to sticky. any intake install will give you some idea on how to install it.

 

Unscrew everything that's holding your airbox and front factory air intake. Undo all the clamps. Lift factory air assembly out. Unscrew plastic peice with MAF in it from air box. Screw it on new intake, follow pictures to mount new intake to throttle body. That's how I did it for my Injen. How much did you pay for the Berk, and where did you get it. I am looking at getting one too.

 

my girlfriend ordered if from www.berktechnology.com i got the one with the apexi filter and it was $179 plus shipping...great deal IMO. from what i read on the forums it was the best one to go with.

 

youll love the sound, i have mine with the K&N and i love it. the install was easy, but the directions i got from Berk were perfect, im not sure whats with yours.

let us know when you get to the fun part of slipping the small rubber tube onto the MAF

 

i should just drive to budd lake and have you help me install it...i kno im going to break something trying to put it on there...considering the hardest thing i ever had to install on a car was a speaker, lol

haha, you could do that, im sure ill remember how

 

lol...im serious tho..i dont want to mess anything up...its probably only like an hour or a little more from hamilton

 

Do it your damn self... ... besides, didn't your Berk come with any instructions? Here's what mine came with:





(If those pics don't show up, go to page 6 of my homepage, or PM me your email address and I'll just send em)

I also used the following link for pics of the install, its for an Injen install, but just use your imagination:

Its a really easy install... took me less than an hour.... the hardest part is stretching the silicon tubing onto the MAF and intake manifold, but after some exertion, ya should be able to do it by hand...

 

mine didnt come with directions at all...the only ones i got were in japanese and they were in the box with the apexi filter...they wont do me any good...the pics didnt show up...pm sent..thanks

My berk intake is being shipped as we speak. I can't WAIT to get it and install it. Bryan is a great guy to deal with, although he's awfully busy all the time. I also got the Apexi filter. I also got a great deal on it but can't tell you how much. Enjoy.

PDF emailed... have fun....

 

that will save him to the drip up to budd lake, and also save my fingers the pain of tryin to stretch that damn thing over the MAF in the cold, haha.

 

thanks for helping me out guys...ill let you know if i F it up...ill probably put in on in a couple weeks...or the first day when it gets warmer out

OK, I'm thinking Maxima caravan to Budd Lake and hanging out with KC and NJDevil. (I might need the extra pair of hands/eyes to help me put an Injen heat shield on my CAI. )

 

im up for anything anytime...im going to attempt the intake myself and im putting in my super plasma H3's next wednesday..it should be getting in the 40's here in NJ...wooo!!

Take you time and don't get impatient. Disconnect the battery before the install. You might consider doing a ECU reset after install so the ECU starts with a "clean slate" check the stickies up top for info on that procedure.

 

a pr intake is something you might want help on

 

mine didnt have instructions either...but i figured it out
i had to buy smaller clamps for the vacuum hoses but everything else was fine

 

Guess I'm one of the lucky ones.... did ya get the K&N or Apexi?

 

K&N.........
