A hole saw is easy to use...drill a pilot hole, get a 3-inch holesaw bit (im assuming you need a 3-inch hole), and drill it carefully. If you can install a CAI, you can probably drill a hole...
If you dont know how to install the CAI, you just need to know how to use hose clamps and understand the logical order that all the parts should follow.

FYI: the black plastic MAF adapter will break eventually. On mine, the flange cracked around the base. It still bolted up, but leaked.
You might think about a billet MAF adapter from cattman. Mine was about 50 shipped.

Take your time , its a long process if you want to do it right. Dont panic about drilling and moving stuff around, just remeber how it goes back together. The first time I did it I got all the way to the drilling part then I whimped out and put everything back together.
But the next day I said f-that and went though with it. I am glad I did. Good luck bro.
