Is there a step-by-step for this on a site somewhere?

A parts list including the model number of the air filter I should get would be nice along with anything else I should know.

No instructions

This is just going to be a one off job for SC owners that want a CAI. Just go to your local Home Depot and see what kind of PVC tubing you need.

You will need:

*2-3 PVC tubing that makes a not quite a 90 angle (greater than 90 degrees if anything). This will go onto your SC inlet tube where the "chipwhich" stock airfilter was attached to.
*2-3 sections of straight PVC tubing.
*K&N conical airfilter (can be picked up at any Nopi store) Generic one will do, doesn't have to be one to fit any model in particular
*Some clamps to secure the sections of the tubing together, and to hold the airfilter to the tubing and the tubing to the SC if that makes sense.

It might take a while. And make sure you don't use a Dremel on the plastic PVC piping- it will flake and melt it and give you not such a desireable end product.
