It never hurts to learn.... What kind of intake are you installing? Have you worked on cars before, or is this the first? If it is, an intake is a great way to get over the fear of working on your own car, without really being able to screw much up.

It's dirty, time-consuming, and you usually beat up your hands (and swear at the car). Generally a bit of a love/hate relationship, but some people find it very satisfying to work through the issues. When it's all done though, it's fun.

When you're installing an intake, having never touched an engine bay before, I'd budget around an hour. When you know how it all works, yea, like 15 minutes....but half the fun is figuring it out yourself.


PS: If you're careful and steady, you probably won't beat up your hands on an intake install. Exhausts are another matter....

If you got the wrong one, and it's the same part as the coupe model....I might be willing to buy it if you can't return it. PM me if interested, with price of course.

Jamjamz, I'm strongly considering getting an intake as well. What was the deciding factor in going with Stillen and not another brand like fujita? Did you check to see if their was interest in a group buy?
