right after the arch in the intake. Basically in the middle. cut it so that if you took your CAI off you could still run a short ram.

i read somewhere your not supposed to have your spark plugs zip tied together like that, somethin about cross interference or something, maybe you should look inot it and to the original poster if the pipe the connects to the tb is solid all the way to the hole near the fender well you kind ahave to cut it in the middle area so i would think about that
