How hard is it to install an AEM Intake?

I have a fair amount of knowledge and experience working on cars, and the instructions don't seem very hard, although they do not have much detail. On that note, does anyone have any pictures from an install??
Thanks
Chris

It's pretty easy. The FAQ should help.

The hardest part i thought was taking the stock airbox out. And still that was pretty easy.

Couple of addendums to my install instructions:

1) Cut the pipe lower if you have a bypass. Probably over the A.
If you do it too high then the bottom of your hood lid will mash the foam of the bypass filter. It's kind of annoying.

2) In the last picture on my install page, there is a long
diagonal pipe. The top part is right above where the intake connects to the engine (above the white AEM.). The bottom part
is connected by two clamps.

what you should do is use the tubes included with your intake
to replace that metal piping. It's should be obvious what I'm talking about once you have the parts.

I would do it & take pictures but I can't find them. I should just go to an autozone or something and buy the parts.
