Damn, went the cheap route I see. Well, here's a verbal walk through.

Remove EFI fuse (will reset the ECU). Remove MAF (screws); remove 2 hoses, 1 attached near MAF, 1 to air box (clamps); unclip the plug that is near the MAF on air box; remove flex hose that connects air box to TB (big clamps); remove air box (3 bolts on bottom).

Where you should be at is - 1 big hose on the ground, 2 small hoses on ground, MAF and other plug also still in engine bay. Save the big clamps, you're gonna need one or two of them for the rubber couplings the new intake comes with. The rest of the stuff, save just in case you want to put the stock intake back in.

So, let's install the new intake. 1st coupling gets clamped on to the pipe and then on to the TB. Next coupling gets clamped to the other end of the pipe, and then clamp the other side of that coupling to the filter. Now, if your intake came with new (small) hoses, use those (with the original clamps) to replace the old ones. Install MAF on the spot designed on the intake pipe (always be careful with the MAF). Zip tie the last plug to something near the brake fluid res. Replace the EFI fuse.

Now check, is everything connected? if so, start the car and let it idle for 10 min, turn on A/C and let idle another 5. Take it for a drive.



**PS if the intake came with a metal bracket, using one of the bolts from the stock air box, bolt one side of the bracket into one of the 3 stock air box bolt holes. Loosen up one of the big clamps near the filter. Bend the other side of the bracket into a hook-like shape and hook it inside the clamp. Re-tighten clamp. This bracket is so the intake will move minimally
