(Thread Starter) |   Not Ranked : 0 score  Power Path Stage 2 installed (awesome) - remove factory air collector? (genpu) I recently bought and installed the JBR powerpath stage 2 on my 2012 speed3, first mod, and I love it to death. Jamie/Jennifer provided great customer service. The install guide is awesome, far better than some competitors, and it went without a hitch. Question: The install guide leaves the furthest upstream bits of the factory intake installed, not sure what to call them, air collector and hose? See attached picture, green circle, shows the hose i removed, but I left in the furthest upstream plastic piece (not pictured). Is it best to leave those installed? I see that it would direct airflow to the filter, but I was thinking that the hose itself was pointed slightly down. Leaving only the initial air collector/deflector will still generally direct ram air at the air filter. I can get some better pictures later if it helps, i stole the attached from JBRs install guide: http://jamesbaroneracing.com/support...structions.pdf Thanks! JBR likes this.

|  Correct me if I'm wrong, but that hose in the green circle shouldn't be part of the OEM intake system at all...

| Not Ranked : 0 score I left mine installed for a long time and then removed it last week. It is used to get fresh air to the stock intake box but it is not needed on the JBR intake. Mine was actually scrapping up against my Corksport intake so that is why I took it out but I don't think it will do that to the JBR intake.

| Not Ranked : 0 score I was pondering that same thing the other day. Decided to just leave it attached on the off chance I need to stock out for some reason. One less thing to put back.

| Not Ranked : 0 score I took the entire piece out and it does help bring down the Intake and BAt's as air now passes directly over the intake manifold. Also I have a FMIC and took out the scoop from the hood and you will be amazed how much more heat comes out now. One last thing if you decide to leave that piece of the OEM intake you could get the new Cobb SRI box that utilizes that section and acts as a ram air. Just my 2 cents enjoy the new intake!!

Oem intake ducting meaning the one with the round end. That's the one i removed. The square one that clips to the radiator housing I left in. IAT's (under hood temps) got hotter when I removed it so I re installed it.
