there's a whole buncha screws 
but, yeah, Motordyne provides very thorough instructions (9 pages worth w/ b&w pics that comes in the box).
since you also enjoy tropical weather, there's no need for you to get the throttle body Coolant Control Valve.
my take on the Iso Thermal plenum spacer system is that there is a bit of a gain, but you gotta be really in tune w/ your car to notice it. definitely not a "holy shiet!
" type of deal. Honestly, after a month with it, i've forgotten if there was much of a change at all... my butt dyno isn't the greatest.
i feel it's a seamless integration, & hasn't caused any hiccups so far
i'm happy & would recommend this mod to even the casual car tinkerer.
an inch-lbs torque wrench is suggested for the install-- let me know if you like borrow. you will need to re-torque the bolts to specs a couple hundred miles after the install.

Here are the detailed instructions directly from the MotorDyne website (the instruction booklet will also come with the spacer). Visit their website and/or call Tony for some really good information concerning their products.
