"Hi! I'm Jake Breyck and today on behalf of Expert Village, I am going to show you how to install a custom car intake. Okay now if you had a kit that came with an air filter it may be pre-oiled so you may not need to oil. So it may be a little oily to handle so always check for any damages or obstructions. You want to take the third clamp and put there and secure it to the edge of the intake tube and secure it with the proper screwdriver. Make sure that it is nice and tight so that it doesn't fall off while you are driving because if it does that, debris could get sucked into your engine and cause possible engine damage. Then tug on it lightly to make sure that it is secured on there tightly. "
