Just try to find a picture on a site and try to install it by looking at it. It's pretty easy.

Remove your lower radiator hose, and use the supplied rubber connectors and hose clamps to attach it there. The rest you should be able to figure out once you get this end attached

Do you have the same kind of intake? I just figured he bought a 4th/5th gen Injen or something. hmmmm?

When I installed the injen on my Dads 5th gen I didn't have to take off anything but the stock air box crap.

No I was just seeing if he'd actually attach his CAI to his lower radiator hose

Yes he does have the same intake. It's called the agua CAI.

d00d I was changing my oil today, and noticed my mid pipe slipped out of the coupling that goes to the throttle body. I stacked the oil on the cai tube, but I dont think thats what did it. Then again the car was running and idling fine, so maybe it was the oil. who knows, I just thought it was strange.

no write up put I do have a template. Thanks goes to portdave and Craig B.

Also why do you say until you get a better one? The cheap ebay one is just as good as all the rest of them EXCEPT the filter. Just get you a good K&N filter later on and you are good to go.

I assume you got the same one as I have. Check my site to see it installed.

Good lookin out man, thanks... Do u suggest taking of the fender/shields during installation or can they be left on? And from what it looks like the longer pipe is angled at about a 45 degree with respect to the horizon right? Thanks again...
