Quick CAI install ?

BTW, hi guys. Just joined. I just bought my first Nissan too about a month ago. Replaced my turbo'd Civic w/ something more comfortable and more torque. Anyway, I've started the mods on my Max w/ the easy stuff. I've got 2 questions about this Injen-clone CAI that I just installed.

1) The "Boost" sensor" that was located on the hood scoop: I just zip-tied that down. Once I removed all of the stock intake, there was no where to bolt this down to. Or is there? Anyone?

2) I had to really stretch out the MAF harness and such in order to make it reach the new position since it's further away from stock. Make my bay look kinda ugly in that one spot. Is there anyway to give it more slack so I can zip tie it?

Thanks.

O and 1 more thing, it's good to be a Nissan fanboi now.

I still have it. I'm in the process of selling it. It has body damage. I was stupid to let my roommate borrow it. Live n learn.

It's a 98 hatch. Stock internals boosted by Greddy TD-04-15G turbo w/ Greddy type-31 fmic. Running 6.5lbs boost w/ auto. Quick car w/ no torque. :/ Just for quick comparisons sake. It outruns V6 mustangs easily, but that's not saying much. Raced a 2003 SE Max in it from a 40mph roll and lost by ~3 cars once we hit 90. :| Not good.

Can someone plz answer my OP. k thx

I got a good deal on the auto max. that's why I went auto. I would've preferred a stick, but $ was the deciding factor for my decision. hell I wasn't even looking at the max at first. I initially wanted a honda prelude, heh.
