Default S40 T5 intake question...

Hey all,

I thought about changing my S40 to a cold air intake set-up, but I'm not sure where to begin with taking the stock airbox off. Any suggestions or instructions on this? Thanks in advance!

Good luck. No one makes a true CAI for Volvo's period.

1. http://www.eurosporttuning.com
They have an intake kit with heatshield but it still sucks in tons of hot air even with the heatshield.

2. http://www.vivaperformance
They sell the BMC CDA which is a nice intake kit but is it really worth the money it costs. Added with the fact that the filters are wayyyyyyy over priced.

3. "Slater" from http://www.vovlospeed.com
He came up with a DIY cold air intake kit. I posted it here on this forum in the INTAKE section. I am sure it would work with your car as well.

4. If you wanna take the stock air box out. First unclip all the clips that hold the top of the air box on. Second unscrew the MAF from the top of the airbox with some TORX Screwdrivers, I forget the size. Thirdly you should pull up on the bottom part of the box and it should come off.
