What's there to write about.

It's pretty straight foward.

- remove airbox and all that crap
- Install AEM Intake pipe
- Plug in your IAT Sensor in the AEM pipe
- Install your AEM air Filter down there.

Crank it.

If you're that worried about it, take it down to a garage...

Everybody starts somewhere guys. Remeber that.

Open your hood and examine your stock airbox and you'll see where it attaches to different places. Look at it for a while, and I'll make sense to you. If it still doesn't then:

we have all been here before just some people are more comfortable about doing it there first time. Its alright just take you time and go through it if it take you 6 hrs. to do it **** it so it does.

just go at it and learn as you go you will learn more that way then someone tring to tell you how to do it step by step

Pretty easy man. If you take off your front bumper, it will make your job even easier. Just look for where everything bolts up, unbolt it and put on your intake pipe, then throw on your filter.

Just as a reference for you. Hope it helps

I remember asking this too in 03

boy did I get flamed !

some guy told me his GF did it on her car.


and those were the words that got me to install it


but seriously, you can do it no problem, open to the hood, take a look at it and you'll see how easy it is
if you get stuck, take some pics of where you are, and we'll help you out

Hardest part is taking out the resignator. I helped a buddy put one on his '02 s10. It took us 20 minutes to figure out how to take off the resignator and stock intake (damned domestics) and about 5 to put the CAI on.

1) unbolt stock intake from your TB. Unbolt your resignator/stock intake pipes and pull them all out.
2)find out how the CAI fits into your engine bay
3) connect the coupling (i think that's what its called. rubber piece) to the CAI and your TB
4) put the little hose that came out of the stock intake into the little rubber slot on the CAI
5) put on filter.

hope that helps.
