look at it as a good chance to bond with her you will need somebody to hold the pipes where you want them while you tighten down. girls also love organizing stuff, so give her the duty of keeping track of bolts and hardware.

Stillen says to use the longer studded air filter on the passenger side, but i couldnt get it to fit with the splash guard, the radiator support bracket was in the way. other than that i would work one side at a time, and make sure you get the lower pipes in there with the filter bolted up before you start tweaking fitment.

Major set back on the install. I went ahead and opened my baby up and did the necessary modifications so that everything would fit nice. When the box came in, turns out they had sent me the wrong intake. I got the one for the 370Z. The tubes were too long and did not fit at all. So now I have to ship it back and wait for it to come back in. -__-

Would you really feel the gain after installing CAI, or do you need a tune ?

took off my grille again to tweak pipe placement again as i was getting some rubbing. i found placing rubber tubing cut down the middle over the ridge in the openings kept vibrations and sound to a min. this thing is mean looking.
