It took my friend and I 45 min to put the CAI w/bypass in. I took apart the top of the car, and he did the resonator underneath. We used a sawsall to cut the tube....It wasn't that hard at all.

As for performance, I didn't disconnect the battery, so I dont know if the ECU has adapted wet, but it sounds fuckin awesome.

I have one question, why does it look like there are two throttle bodies, and is where the intake clamps to the throttle body supposed to be flexible, meaning does the throttle body move a little after the CAI is installed?

 

yea it does move a little bit. That's why you want to tighten it really good so you dont' get any leaks.

you want to disconnect the battery. just losen the negative and let it sit for 30 mins.

 

I dont know why everyone says CAIs are so loud.I dont think mine is at all????????

 

In comparison to OEM, CAI is a ittle loud when you hit vtec. Gotta love the sounds
