Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for an air intake assembly comprising an airbox defining a plenum for enclosing an air filter, an intake tube attached to the air filter at a first end of the intake tube, the intake tube having a shoulder, and a multi-lipped gasket for detachably connecting the intake tube to the airbox, the multi-lipped gasket comprising a body portion defining a bore for sealingly engaging the intake tube, a lip adjacent the bore for engaging the shoulder of the intake tube, and a pair of distal lips for sealingly engaging the airbox, wherein the airbox, the air filter, and the intake tube are adapted so that air flows into the airbox, through the air filter, through the intake tube, and into a combustion engine (optionally reaching the combustion engine by first passing through a turbocharger and intercooler) of a vehicle.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for attaching two automotive components comprising different materials having different coefficients of expansion, comprising providing a flange around a perimeter of each of the components, wherein at least one component defines a plenum contiguous to the perimeter, providing corresponding inner faces of the flanges, providing a channel in at least one of the corresponding faces of the flanges, wherein the channel is coaxial to the perimeter, disposing a gasket in the channel, and surrounding the flanges with a locking ring, wherein the ring has an axial channel and a pin disposed perpendicular to the channel to secure a first end of the locking ring to a mating second end of the locking ring.
