Does anyone have pics of their set up? I can't imagine how this thing fits there. Did you have to cut anything?
Also, at the top near your throttle body, there are two connectors, on the AEM CAI those connectors are gone. What are they for and don't we need them for the CAI?
Thanks guys.

Huh? There are pics in the FIRST POST. The installation instructions.
Yes, you have to cut your splash guard a bit.
I don't understand the rest of what you are talking about.
Did you buy one?

Redz, I saw the pics but I want to see some installed on someones car.
The rest I sorted out, I didn't realise when you install the AEM style CAI that you connect it to your existing black pipe. I wondered where you connected the two small hoses to. All sorted now.
I haven't got one yet, waiting for my crappy one to arrive, i'll sell it and then order the proper AEM style one.

^^ if you ordered the standard 2 piece ebay one, keep the chrome Y pipe for your idle air bypass and the PCV. It looks better then the black plastic stock one.

Couldn't do this for two reasons.
1. I have the y piece from the ebay crappy WAI. It makes the AEM (replica) too short and doesnt reach the designated hole for holding the CAI on.
I drilled a new hole, but it sticks out too much and I found that the tire would rub on it.
2. Even if it was extended it wouldn't fit becasue I have a black cylinder with two tubes coming out of the top, and one coming out of the bottom... right there where the filter would be, and there's no way of getting around it. (pics below)
Any ideas?
