Yep. I wanna do that do. I work OT every other Saturday so we have to plan ahead the date so I'll know if I'm working or not.

buy the Craftsman because they have a lifetime warranty on their tools. I knew a mechanic that had his tools damaged from something can't remember if it was a fire or what but he got a whole new set from them. So at least you'll get the peace of mind if anything happens to the tools, you'll get a replacement. If you're going to Sears, get the mechanics tool set. They have a variety of sets. You can get one with a ton of sockets and extensions or you can get a small set with just some basic sockets and a couple of extensions.
Ok so unplug the wire. Remove every thing. Transfer MAF to new intake Tube. Install new intake. Connect wire again. TO I have to let its sit for 10-15 mins running or reset ECU. I wouldn't think so but not sure.

Yep, I'm planning on getting it at sears and getting the Mechanic Tool set.

yeah you disconnect the batter, negative side is fine, and then wait a few minutes. reconnect and run the car for about 10 minutes at idle then take it out for some fun.

Alright! I think I'm ready to do this once I get it. I'll remove the negative before I start the install.

How do you reset ECU??? Just disconnecting the battery for a few minutes?

yeah leave it disconnected for a few minutes and that'll reset the ECU. You may want to get your radio code because you'll have to enter it after you reconnect the battery.

I hope I know... Looks simple though. Normally I have to see it once before I can take on in but from pics on DIY and stuff looks simple enough.

Im gonna try and take on it and if I cant then thats when I'll ask for help. I'm hoping it'll come tomorrow or friday so I'll probably do it the same day. You said you're not free THurs and weren't you gonna go racelegal on friday?

Hopefully I dont have too...

Oh... I thought you were planning on going. I'll probably still need your help for guidance. When ever that stupid intake get ship by Fujita. I bought the 53pcs Mechanic Tool set from sears. How long of an extension do you think I need for the bolt? It only came with a 3" thats definitely not enough. Hahaha!

Yeah, I'll let you know. As soon as I find out when Fujita is shipping it. Maybe I should cancel Fujita cause I dont think it has shipped yet and just get Injen CIA or SR with Apexi filter...

from what I've heard from different people, the injen cai is pretty weak.

1) you have to cut a hole in your wheel well to accomodate the pipe.
2) after a few thousand miles or less the bracket that keeps the lower half of the pipe from vibrating breaks and/or jacks up the pipe.
