D.I.Y. - ZZP Front Mount & DDM Works Silicone Charge Pipes - By Richard DeFries

D.I.Y. - ZZP Front Mount & DDM Works Silicone Charge Pipes 

1. Gather Your Tools / Parts -  Assorted Sockets - Assorted Ratchets - Assorted Extensions - T20 Torx Socket - Creeper - Jack - Jack Stands - Flat Head Screw Driver - Vice Grips - Dremel (Optional) - Shop Rags - ZZP Front Mount - DDM Works Silicone Charge Pipe Kit - 3 x Small Jars / Bins 

2. Park Your Car . Engage Your Parking Brake / E - Brake . Chuck Your Rear Wheels . ! Safety First !

3. Jack Up The Front Of Your Car And Place Your Car On Jack Stands. Pop Your Hood And Start Removing The 6 Push Clips And 4 10 MM Bolts From Up Top. Place Everything Removed Into Jar / Bin #1 Under Hood . Then Remove The 4 T20 Torx Screws In Each Wheel Well. Place Everything Removed Into Jar / Bin #2 Wheel Wells (Ref Pic 1 & 2) After That Under The Front Bumper You Will Have 2 14 MM Bolt , 6 Push Clips , And 4 T20 Torx Screws To Remove. Place Everything Removed Into Jar / Bin #3 Underbelly



4. Once You Have Removed All The Hardware Holding Your Bumper In Place Comes Now The Fun Part Pulling Toward The Front Of Your Car And Shaking You Should Be Able To Remove The Front Bumper From The Fender Clips Without Breaking A Singlet Tab (Ref Pic 3) Make Sure To Remove Slowly As You May Have 2 Fog Light Wires To Disconnect And A Sensor In The Front Bumper To Disconnect Once Removed Set Off To The Side


5. Remove The Crash Bars 4 14 MM Bolts And Set The Bar To The Side Then Use Your Flat Head Screw Driver To Remove The 4 Push Clips From The Front Mount Shroud And Set To The Side (Ref Pic 4)


6. Detach The Plastic Slide Cips From The Charge Pipes That Hold Them To The Front Mount Then Remove The C Rings And Detach Your Charge Pipes From The Front Mount Then Remove The 11 MM Bolt From The Front Mount Then On The Passenger Side You Will Have A Push Tab To Release The Front Mount. Then Rock The Top Half Toward The Front Of The Car And Pull Outward To Remove The Front Mount. Set The Old Front Mount To The Side

7. Remove The Hose Clamp From The Bottom Of The Turbo And Remove The Hot Side Of The Factory Charge Pipes. Then Remove The Hose Clamp From The Throttle Body And Stuff A Clean Rag Into The Throttle Body Just For Peace Of Mind. Now From Under The Car Remove The 2 x 13 MM Bolts Holding The Plastic 90° Sensor Pipe In Place And Remove The Sensor. Now Remove The Cold Side Of Your Charge Pipes. Also When Removing The Cold Side 90° The Bolts Have Slide Washers They Sit In DON'T LOSE THOSE!

8. The Factory Hose Clamps Are Pressure Set And I Had To Break Mine Off I Would Suggest Using Vice Grips To Remove Some Of The Tension And A Flat Head Screw Driver To Break Them Free (Ref Pic 5) Or You Can Use A Dremel With A Cutting Wheel To Cut Off But Be Careful. Once You Have The Pressure Set Hose Clamps Removed From The Metal Hot Side 90° Pipe And Cold Side Plastic 90° Pipe You Can Start Installing Your DDM Works Silicone Charge Pipes But Don't Tighten The Provided Hose Clamps Yet

9. Now You Can Install The ZZP Front Mount Insert The Bottom Half On The Front Mount First Make Sure The Bars Fit Into The Guides And Then Rock The Top Half Up You Should Hear It Click Into Place Now Reinstall The Factory 11 MM Bolt (Driver Side) And ZZP Supplies You With Another Bolt To Install On The Passenger Side (Ref Pic 6)


10. Start Fishing Your DDM Works Silicone Charge Pipe Through The Lower Fender Don't Be Afraid To Bend Them A Bit To Get Them All Set In Place Then Tighten All The Supplied Hose Clamps. Remove The Rag From Your Throttle Body And Attach The Upper Charge Pipe And Tighten The Hose Clamp (Ref Pic 7). Reattach The Plastic 90° Pipes 2 x 13 MM Bolts And Reattach The Sensor (Ref Pic 8) Then Install The Charge Pipe Onto The ZZP Front Mount (Ref Pic 9) Just For Peace Of Mind Give Every Pipe A Little Tug To Make Sure You Snugged Up All Your Hose Clamps And You Will Notice The DDM Works Charge Pipe Are Flared To Mate With The Factory Intercooler They Are A Bit Big For The ZZP Front Mount You Will Have To Push Them On Quite A Bit And Tighten Them Farther Down.Or Cut The Flares Off Which I Chose Not To Do



11. Install Your DDM Works Charge Pipe To The Passenger Side Of The ZZP Front Mount And Tighten Down Your Clamp (Ref Pic 10) Then Install Your Lower Turbo Pipe Section And Tighten Your Hose Clamp (Ref Pic 11) And Then Give Them A Little Tug To Make Sure Everything Is Tightened



12. Now Reverse Steps 3 - 4 - 5 (The Front Mount Shroud Will Not Be Reinstalled)

13. You Will Notice Reinstalling The Front Bumper Will Be A Bit Snug And Take Some Minor Pushing To Get Things To Line Up Properly

14. Sit Back And Enjoy Your Hard Work!
