well, theres no way on earth we could of put it on without my friends help.....we ended up having to jack up the car, take off the tire, take off part of the front bumper, take out the upper and lower air box, "make" a custom washer thingy to attach the damn thing to the side(the washer it gave us didn't fit so we had to make another one using diff washers and it finally fit), and then freaking put part of the front bumper back on.........so I'm glad I got his help....oh, and it sounds sweet as h8ll and feels like a 50 hp gain:yes:

Ohh, it sounds SWEET at 6000 rpm...:eek: :eek: :eek:

Here's a brief summary of what we did (I wasn't there for the first half of it being installed cause my really friendly boss "BS", didn't let me take my damn lunch when I asked. Well anyways I helped with the last half of it...

Before I got out there, my friend had taken out the upper air box by just unbolting a few screws. Then he had to jack up the car, and remove the front right tire. After this u need to remove the lower air box under where the top one wuz(Its huge, hard to miss the lower one). Now we're ready to start putting it on.

Fit on the connecting hose to the end of where the intake attaches to engine. Just slide it on, and use the fastners to get it on there tight. Now, slide the intake in, putting the flat part into the connecting hose and letting the part that goes down, fall down into place(should go way down next to the bottom of ur tire. Now, fasten the intake to the hose, with whatever they give ya, and proceed to the part that gave us problems.

On the downward part of the intake, halfway down u need to bolt it onto the side of ur car. U'll see a lot of little holes in ur Teg where it could fit into, but if u put the connecting hose on right and u fit the intake into the hose right, then there's only one hole it should be close to. Get out the washer connector they give ya, and put the slot of the intake through it, then screw the washers down into the hole. This is where we had a little problem, because our washers wouldn't fit right into the hole, it wuz half an inch to the right of the hole, so we had to readjust the hose at the beginning, and then adjust the washers a bit for them to finally fit in the hole. This sidetrack only took about 5 minutes, but still. Now with the intake bolted into the side it is secure. Go down and put the filter on the end of the intake, and boom its on.

Now all ya have to do is backtrack, putting in all of the screws u took out while taking the tire off, and what such. And there, the intake's on.

This is a very short summary of how it wuz put on, basically this is how to do it. There are different ways to putting the intake on. U could take off part of the front bumper, but I think its much easier to just take off the front right tire. And there ya go. I would give ya a little more info if I had been there for the first part of it, but again, I wuz unable to. Oh, and the intake sounds SWEET once u get up in the rpm. Good luck, on installing ur intakes in the future. Once I recieve my exhaust system in a month or two, I'll be there for the entire time, not just part of it, and I'll post that up here too.
