I've read through the DIY for installing the CAI, but can't really tell how hard the actually procedure is. For somebody who hasn't really done much with cars, is it something that I should take on myself? Or am I gunna get halfway through it and end up kicking myself?

well the only thing you would have to do, if it IS a cold air intake you're buying vs. just a short ram, is you would have to enlarge the hole in the fender w/ some tin snips or similar tool for the pipe to fit in. It isn't difficult at all, but you just gotta have the right tools ya know.
You basically need to enlarge the hole to the size of a 3x5inch notecard for the pipe to clear.

Its not hard, but like Losiracer2 said make sure you have all the tools needed before you start taking things apart.Comment

What kind of tool would you need to make the hole bigger? Would a dremel work? I hope I don't get flamed for that question...Comment

Hole saw ftwwat?Comment

When I put mine in I used a sawzall (18volt cordless), a dremel, and some air tools to be and then used sanding wheel to smooth the hole (even thought the hole looked really good ) then I took a some door edge moulding (you can find it at any autoparts store) and put it around the edge of the hole to protect the cai from metal on metal contact.WE MISS YOU JO(9-04-2008)

Thanks a ton guys. I'm going to get a bypass valve while I'm at it too. Is there any real difference between the AEM one and a cheapo ebay like this one?

the AEM does a better job of letting water out
