How to Install an Airaid EconoAid Throttle Body Booster on your 2007-2011 3.8L Jeep Wrangler JK

Installation Time

10 minutes



1. Disconnect the negative battery cable!

Slide the red tab, and squeeze the black tab on the air intake temperature sensor connector, and disconnect it from the sensor. Disconnect the crankcase breather hose from the intake tube. Loosen two hose clamps on the factory intake tube and remove it from the vehicle

2. Remove the four bolts that hold the throttlebody to the intake manifold. 



4. Reinstall the factory bolts and tighten them in a cross pattern to the manufacturer’s specifications. Before starting the engine, open and close the throttlebody to make sure there are no obstructions.


5. Reinstall the intake tube and tighten the hose clamps. Reconnect the air intake temperature sensor. Reconnect the crankcase breather hose.

6. Double check your work. Make sure there is no foreign material in the intake tract. Make sure all clamps, hoses, connectors, nuts, and bolts are secure. Reconnect the negative battery cable.


Included with your ECONOAID Throttlebody Booster is a decal with the California Air Resources Board ( C.A.R.B. ) Executive Order number D-520-4. This decal must be placed in plain view inside the engine compartment. Failure to do may prevent you from passing a smog inspection.
