Thats my question. It doesn't look to difficult so I think i am just gonna do it myself. Anyone have any pointers? thanks

it's easy...my girlfriend ended up doing it for me...just follow the directions, and you'll be fine...for the filter, you may need to pull the bottom of the bumper out a bit...good luck!

It's pretty easy I would imagine. I made my own cold air intake and it was easy.

A pointer for removing a stock airbox is, there are only 3 bolts holding the cover on the right side (by the fuse box - you'll know when you get there) After the three bolts just pull as hard as you can :)

The install was simple.... Took about 1/2 hour and I am far from being a mechanic. I had the inline filter and ended up scratching the finish on the intake when I was sawing the pipe. The metal shavings scratched the hell out of it so watch out for that.

Heres a pic of the installed product.

It's a cake walk to install, but be picky about the angle that you install it at. Mine was a used AEM and came with the bypass valve(not too sure about the place he chose to cut the pipe at). the first week I had it on, I had to reposition it, and retighten the brackets holding everything on. The front back flex of my engine when I revved it was slowly pulling the pipe out of the fittings in the middle.

Oh....and make sure to use a ratchet on all the brackets holding it on...it's set up for either that or a flathead screwdriver, but the screwdriver will not get it tight enough.

It wasnt that hard all i did was take the battery out and jack the car up on the driver side install the pipe then clamped it and then got underneath the car then put the filter on make sure to clamp the filter on really good use atleast two clamps.

you could be drunk and be getting some action and still install the CAI :)
