15. there are 2 couplers, use the small one and put it on the throttle body and put a supplied clamp on and tighten it good.

this is what it will look like once secured

16. there are also 2intake tubes. take the smaller part of the smaller tube and put it on the tube, put the clamp on but dont tighten it all the way to give yourself room for fine tuning(adjusting)

17. now grab the larger tube(where MAF is not housed) and put a coupler on and 2 clamps on there so you can move them around and tighetn them

18. The larger tube will have a arm and you will want to instert the 10mm bolt into the OEM location and tighetn it, but not all the way, connect the tubest together and clamp them, loosely again.

19. Istall the cone filter and clamp it good with the supplied clamp to the end of the large tube (the only opening at this point)

20. this is the overview of the engine compartment with everythign in place

21. at this point you would want to tighten all the connections and clamps, make sure that the throttle cable is not moved anywhere, connect the MAF cable to the MAF, in my case i moved the J tube that was loose already, and just make sure that anything that you disconnected is connected back.
22. this picture shows the outside view with some extreme disposure to show the filter in place, so you really get all the air. i also installed grilles on both sides to prevent leaves and dirt com coming in.

23. put everything back together and enjoy the new sound.

here is a quick video right after i put it in
