Installation Of The Surbo

1. When you are ready to have the Surbo installed in your vehicle, please call your local dealer. Contacts are available on our homepage (click "Surbo's Main Webpage" below). If you cannot find the contact, do not hesitate to email us for help.

2. The Surbo (tapered from 2" to 2.5" in diameter and nearly 4 inches long) and ring adaptors or housing (which pad the 2" inlet of the Surbo to the diameter of the air intake channel) will be shown to you, the customer, and the underlying principles and activation method (see How It Works ) will be explained.

3. The dealer will inspect the engine and show you where the Surbo will be placed. Depending on the air filter layout, which could be original or already modified, the Surbo can be fitted at the inlet to the filter case, or at its outlet, or in the air pipe after the filter. No cutting will be done unless it is absolutely necessary (which is seldom the case). An air line check will be performed, and broken air hoses will be rejoined (if any). In short, all the air to the engine must be channelled through the Surbo.

4. The Surbo will be installed and leaks between it and the manifold will be sealed with high temperature resistant RTV silicone to ensure air pressure. (It will still be possible for you to change the air filter without affecting the setup as there is the original rubber seal for the filter cover.)

5. After the silicone has skinned in 15 minutes with hairdrying, the dealer will go with you for a test drive of your new Surbo car, and confirm that it is working perfectly or even demonstrate. Only when you are satisfied will payment be collected.

So, do call your local dealer to put a Surbo into your car soon.
