aight so after spending alot of time working on it, and not being able to find a 10mm socket to take the last piece of that piece of **** intake out that is tucked behind the bumper, after hrs of tryin to take it off with other tools, finally found a 10mm haha and managed to install the intake comepletly... i also ordered my intake from ebay,, much cheaper, only right under 100$ and the only thing i need to buy is the mini filter for that extra tube i have.. other than that, i took it for a test drive, sounds muchhh deeper tone, and it picks up much quicker.... i cant beleiv that i did it myself too, haha

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...low/intake.jpg - after! i wish the filter was showing, i like the appearance, but then again, the air wudnt really be that cold near the engine,
also i know this is kind of silly, but does the brand name of the intake really make that much of a difference,,, because, it is really just the steal pipe and the filter.... just wondering, because i found mine off of ebay, so just curious

no real difference other than the name. sometimes they will throw a CEL other times they wont. I dunno there really isn't a substantial difference. Except with Injen you can go between CAI and SRI
