It's a pain & I don't recommend enduring this project for 3.2 or smaller till the engine is out. I removed the intake & fuel rail. Bend the engine lid mounting tab straight up for more clearance & remove the airbox lid filter & snorkel. You can reinstall the snorkel, filter & lid once you get the box bolted in. It would be much easier with the MAF mounting flange sawed off, but I like the larger MAF tube & works great with a 996 reflash
