Question on ractive 3.0l intake

[new_yorks_illes]

Hi I am new to this board. You guys seem to rock totally. I searched but i couldn't really find what i was looking for maybe you guys can help??

I have a 93 v6 xle and i ordered the ractive 3.0l ractive intake.

1) Has anyone ever used it or know anything about the install
2) will it have a hole for my Maf

I know you all think i am stupid 4 asking but I have a bad feeling it will say it has instructions but they will be for like how to attach the filter to the piping...not how to un-install the stock an install the new intake. I already took the air box off an use a k&n filter but i would need to know how to remove the rest of the stock system. Thank you all 4 taking the time with a newbie. You guys rock!

93 camry v6 xle
custom 2.5 exhaust with ractive dtm
custom 9005 eurolite (low beams)
9005 eurolite(high beams)
clear bumpers
rest is stock 4 now

ight....i have a 92 cam but a 4 cyl....i had the ractive intake for my car but recently took it off to build my CAI....k....where did u order this intake from first of all....dont expect to get any directions as i didnt with mine...i dont have experience with a v6 intake...but to remove my stock u need to loosen the clamps on the pipe and remove the top of the airbox and filter.....then...once the filter is removed it will exposed three screws that need to be taken out...then u can lift the pipe out (after loosening clamps) and the rest of the airbox will be removed with the resonator (or charcoal canister, dont know the difference, its that big lunky thing)....to install the ractive jus take the yellow rubber piece and the stock clamp used to secure the stock pipe to the throttle body and sqeeze the yellow piece onto the throttle body, then insert the ractive pipe and tighten the clamp as hard as possible....do the same thing with the clamp at the other end with the filter....if by Maf u mean the temperature sensor...yes the ractive filter has a hole and grommit already there so all u have to do is push the thing in..if u have any more questions ill be happy to answer them for u....good luck

when u first start ur car up ur gonna hear a REALLY LOUD screech sound until u take it out and get up to around 60 mph....should settle down...it gives a good tone round 3 gear if u puch a little...again i have an i-4 and dont know if itll sound different...let me tell u one thing...i loved the sound so much i had to almost floor the car...trust me...for a first time intake ull love it....but im goin for performance now and makin my own CAI and addin exhaust so i dont stress my engine for that sound....good luck...if u need any help during the install jus let me know
