Need Help St. Louis Install.

Hey, I'm currently a student here in St. Louis, and I just bought a Fujita CAI....thing is, i dont have the room OR the tools here to get the job done?
Can anyone help me out? either offer some help for some $ in return or maybe a few beers ~ or point me in the right direction to a good shop in the University City/Brentwood area?


all the help is appeciated. I guess i COULD buy the tools and just spread everything over in the indoor parking lot...LOL i can imagine how pissed the campus security would get


either way, please help me out

and thanks in advance

terminex isn't doing installs anymore, plus he is kind of far away. I'm starting to think i should just buy the parts and fucking spread everything out in the middle of my school garage...LOL i'm sure campus patrol would LOVE that

AH damn, exclusive you're from NY!!! man i just shipped the car from NY.

but atm I'm located in University City, a few blocks away from WashU St. Louis.
in reality, i could probably buy the tools i need to use, and the jack to lift the car if people who are willing to help don't have the tools. In reality i think what i really need is to have a place where i can actually take things apart and not end up missing a screw somewhere LOL ....

it's so sad, these days when i'm not studying for my finals, i am sitting here reading the instruction manuel over and over again...i think i almost have it memorized.

OK - I FINALLY ordered my full pipe intake

I will be swapping out my intake next Saturday. Anyone who wants to is welcome to come over and use my tools / garage for their intake install. I will provide tools, jacks, advice.

I will NOT be doing the work for you, but i will walk you through it to make it as easy as possible.

PM me if you are interested so that I know how many will be showing up.

anyone who wants to is welcome

If you have a good floor jack, go ahead an bring it with you as it will allow us to do multiple cars at once.

Everyone should be prepared that you will need to remove the front drivers side wheel, wheel well cover, and it is much easier if you also remove the drivers side portion of the front bumper.

Well, that kinda sucks. I really can't wait until next week since I will be out of town that weekend so I'm still planning on installing my CAI this Saturday at my house. I don't claim to know as much as Terminex but if anyone wants to come over and fumble through this install with me Saturday they're more than welcome. Just let me know.

i wish i could help

don't worry, i did this install myself and it is very easy...probably one of the easiest mods i have ever done...i have the AEM btw
just follow the directions that come with the intake and look at some of the DIY's on this site and you will be fine.

unfortunately i am busy most of the day sat. or i would come by and lend a hand.

JCL622 - I think we should get started around 11 on Saturday. I am in the Valley Park / Ballwin area - about 2 miles northwest of highway 141 and 44. I just sent you a PM with my address.
