?? on FIPK install

[Painter]

Just installed the FIPK from K&N. looks good but do I have to install the extra bracket that requires drilling?? It seems stable enough with the radiator bolt bracket alone. it moves a little at the flex point but not much really. what do you think.

No, you can go with just the radiator bolt bracket. There are a lot of folks who didn't want to drill into their fender for the other attachment point.

Don't forget to disconnect your battery for 30 min after the install is done! Got to let the ECM learn about the new free flowing breath of fresh air she's gonna get now!

it will adjust itself without driving it??

Yes, it'll recalculate once you connect the battery and fire up the car again. You should disconnect 20-30mins just to be sure.

You don't need the bracket but check it once and a while for looseness to be safe.......enjoy.

No.... It won't "adjust" itself until you've been through a few drive cycles.
