im sure with all of you assisting the install it will run pretty smoothly...
first off the installation is rather simple...
2 things to watch out for...when cutting the hole...if you are using a drill with a hole saw bit...be careful...my drill got stuck a few times and kicked real hard...i though i broke my arm the last time...then i switched to a saws all and cut the hole free hand
second thing is make sure the filter clamp is tight (goes w/o being said) i know of a few people that installed everything, jiggled the CAI around and the filter popped off..

use a smaller sized hole saw than place racing tells you to use... just put the drill in the center of where you want the hole and pull the trigger and push down... i borrowed a drill from home depot because i didn't have a drill with a large enough opening for the hole saw bit to slide into...
