Ehh, you didn't bother looking in the Do It Yourself section then. The one thread there with instructions and pictures works fine.

Did you click on the pics?

LOL

If you have a AEM style CAI you'll have to cut a hole in the fender well liner. No biggie. When you install it you'll see where. I'm pretty sure there's a pic of that too.

thats only with the aem clones. the injen clones will put the filter right underneath the battery tray. you mihgt have to trim some of the couplers, on my injen clone they were a bit long. make sure you tighten everything really good too.

The injen is even easier man.

Seriously doode, just follow the instructions in that thread I posted, or in the other thread about the Resonator removal. Remove ALL THE OEM INTAKE STUFF. Install the Injen/Clone INTAKE ELBOW. Install the connectors and tighten. Install the MAF and tighten connectors. Install the lower tube, and tighten. You are done.

take out the entire stock intake system, up to TB. temp sensor just pulls right out. then just mock stuff up until it fits in there right.
