take the short tube, replace your "gtube" with it (connect to throttle body and MAF sensor on other end unless it has it built in) then ocnnect hte long tube to hte other end and fish it down towards the bumper, and you need to go through the wheel well to make everythin fit correctly

Hey man i was talking to you yesterday about making this intake into a short ram. How would i go about doing that, and is there a DIY on going through the wheel well?? ive tried searching but came up with nothing.

Thanks alot bro

u just take the short tube and connect it to the throttlebody and then stick the MAF sensor on that one.. I think you need an adapter w/ urs since you bought the one with the new technology and the MAF is built in I believe.. so I think you should run it cold air. just jack ur car up turn your wheel to give you room and bend down the wheel well and you should be able to take the styrofoam out and fit hte filter in there

EDIT: nvm i see you have the adapter for your MAF sensor attached to the long tube, just take that out and connect your filter directly on that, then screw that into your MAF sensor and the little tube from the sensor to the throttle body

yea they made the injen differently so you can't run it short ram unless you buy their specific short ram intake i believe.. so just run it long

they should be screwed into the chasis.. there was only 1 screw for mine.. look up injen's installation directions.. it's not hard to do once you see what you're doing
