Removing Factory Intercooler

1. First thing is first, get the vehicle either up on a lift or get the front end of the car in the air via a floor jack and jack stands. Make sure to block the rear wheels and set the parking brake.

2. If you’re going to paint the COBB stencil onto the intercooler core, go ahead and do so now.

3. We’re going to start off by removing the headlights. There are two (2) T30 Torx bolts that hold the headlight as well as a small plastic Philips head push pin. Remove all three from each side. Once removed, you should be able to carefully pull the headlight up and out. There is a connector on the back that needs to be removed before taking the headlight all the way out.

4. With the headlights out, now use a Philips screwdriver and remove the two plastic push pins from

the top of the bumper.


5. On each side of the bumper, where the bumper meets the front of each quarter panel, there are

three (3) 8mm bolts. Use a ratchet, extension, universal joint, and 8mm socket to remove them from each side.


6. Moving to the inner fender well, there are a total of four (4) fasteners that need to be removed on each side. Two (2) T25 Torx screws, one (1) plastic Philips head push pin, and one (1) 7mm hex head screw. Remove them all. You may need to rotate the steering wheel or push the wheel to get it out of the way for your tools. (Sorry for the muddy car…sometimes you need to rally!)

7. Now, moving underneath the vehicle, we’ll need to remove the five (5) 7mm hex head screws on the bottom of the bumper cover. When done with that, we’ll need to remove the two (2) 7mm hex head screws that attach the front lip to the bumper located towards the outside of the bumper along with the ten (10) plastic push pins that can be removed with a flat head screwdriver. Remove the front lip and set it aside.


8. Now, using an 8mm socket, remove the three (3) hex head bolts from the bottom of the bumper.


9. Finally, reach into the bumper cover and unplug each of the fog lights. With those removed, you should now be able to remove the bumper.

10. Use a 7mm socket to loosen the worm clamp on the intercooler inlet and outlet hose.

11. Use a 7mm socket to loosen the hose clamp that attaches the factory piping to the turbo at the back of the motor. Also, use a 13mm socket to remove the two (2) 13mm nuts that hold the pipe to the bottom of the motor. Remove the pipe.


12. Using a 7mm socket, loosen the clamp holding the other charge pipe to the plastic charge pipe that connects to the throttle body. Remove the soft-walled cold charge pipe, leaving the hard plastic pipe.


Installing COBB Hard Pipe Kit

1. Install the 2.5” to 2.375” silicone reducer onto the plastic throttle body pipe, with the smaller end

going over the plastic tube. Loosely install a T-bolt clamp over over both ends of the coupler. Now, install the smaller cold-side charge pipe as shown below. Install a 2.5” straight coupler and T-bolt clamps between the end of the charge pipe and the intercooler oulet. We’ll come back and tighten them down later once the rest of the kit is installed.


2. Use the smaller T-bolt clamp to install the 2.5” to 1.5” silicone reducer onto the turbo outlet and tighten it down.


3. Now, install the larger charge pipe into the turbo silicone and onto the threaded post coming off the motor where the factory charge pipe was connected. Install a 2.5” straight coupler between the end of the charge pipe and the intercooler inlet. Make sure to fully seat the bracket onto the base of the post and push the charge pipe well up into the turbo silicone. Loosely install a T-bolt clamp over each side of the connections. Install one of the 13mm factory nuts onto the post where the mounting bracket is.

4. With both charge pipes loosely installed, adjust the pipes so get the best fit possible and work from one side to the other tightening down all the T-bolt clamps until everything is secure.

5. Now, reinstall the bumper and headlights in the reverse order that they were removed.

6. Enjoy!
