Default HELP Fujita CAI INSTALL

I am literally installing this right now, please help if you can.

I have taken off the stock airbock and forgot that I needed to put it into 5th gear, however, the it won't go into 5th gear at all no matter what I try. I read post that people's intake are blocking it but I don't have the stock or new intake in at all.

1. Can someone please show me a picture of what may be blocking it?
2. Also, does it matter if I have my car jack up? Does it matter?
3. Also, how in the world do you take off the batter tray, I gotten off all the 12mm bolts already but there are 2 "tie wraps" like thing holding on the - and + wires to the tray.

Thanks in advance

1. remove the cai from the throttle body so you have some space and put your car in 5th gear. then put the cai so that it does not hit the shifter thing.

2. i dont think it would matter if you have it jacked up or not

3. check under the battery tray, there should be some more bolts under there maybe you missed those.... also remove the terminals if your trying to take the battery out


hope this helps

well the problem is that there is no intake in the car right now, just empty bay.. I just can't get into 5th gear. THe stock intake has already been taken out and i haven't install intake to TB yet.

DO you know what else can be the cause?
