Got an SRI... Need assistance... :)

Well my fiancee got me an AEM SRI for my bday/fathers day as a gift. (I know, I know... "She should've gotten me a CAI" lol)... But I'm going to stay with it and just needed some help or maybe some pics on what tubing I need to swap from the current intake to the SRI. Can someone possibly circle what tube needs to go where? I'd highly appreciate that. I've searched but only see pics with them installed, not much explaining of it. TY..

Have fun with it. You can always add on an extension and make it a CAI, i think.

Yes it sounds great. Loving it. And yes, I've come across some tubing that may work for that. I'm debating whether or not I should remove the resonator....

So if it serves no purpose, I assume leaving it in is the same as leaving it out? Or is this a "depends who you ask" question... ie: less weight, cooler air etc etc...

By removing it you have a better chance of colder air getting to the filter.

I was waiting for one of you Mods to chime in.

I'll take mine out when I get the ram air adapter.
