Install -

everything came in very well packaged and in tact with no damage. Akuma had everything packed in tightly and secure with alot of padding and packing peanuts.

for never removing anything from the engine bay it wasnt a challenge to figure out. hardest part was trying to keep track of which body clips and 10mm bolts went to which parts lol there ended up being alot to keep track of once everything was removed. air boxes came out easily, front bumped came off without problem, and the front brace was simple as well.

next came the part that made me most nervous. cutting the stock airducts to make room for the new intakes. it was hard at first for me to take a dremel to my baby but it had to be done. and i tried a rotozip at first but the dremel worked amazingly. rototzip was just too bulky for what needed to be done.

putting in the intakes wasnt exactly difficult but took some work since these are 1 piece compared to stillen gen 3's which are 2 piece. it took a couple tries to find the easiest way to get in. also WD-40 on the inside of the coupler that goes on the throttle bodies. without the WD-40 it is tough to get the couplers on. on the driver side it also took some finagling to put the filter coupler on the front of the intake tube since the AC lines are tight to the intake. not impossible but took a couple extra minutes. it does make a nice tight fit though. there is a little play on the passenger side. i heard a couple vibrations while driving. i most likely will figure out a way to wedge something in there if it ends of bothering me. til then it's gonna be left alone since i've barely heard it and i'm not in the mood to take the front end off again lol.

only install hiccup i had was what to do for the breather tubes from the old intakes. i just shortened the stock tubes to make them work with the new placement on the new intakes. 30 second fix.

after the install i took a few minutes to throw the new tune on with my uprev cable and it was 100% and ran great right from the start (after tune of course)
