AEM Cold Air Intake

Hey guys,

I just purchase one of these suckers for my TL,
realize it came with instruction. I was wondering
what would be your thought of difficulty doing it myself with
the instruction that came with it.

I think of the entire process drilling the resonator would be the
hardest part of the installation. What your thoughts on this?

BTW i'm a novice!

I was a noob when I did this.. and it took me 5-6 hours.. But I took my time, making sure it was perfect, or near it... Mostly, people can do this in less than that.... Avg of about 2 hours or so... Just remember to take the driver side wheel out..

He won't beat you over the head with a price... but definitely under a buck...

Plus you can get other stuff done while you there cheaper than the dealership from a dude who's been working on honda's since the i 've know him (way back in 7th grade) like 10 years plus
