Default Stillen cold air intake for nismo????

I recently purchased the stillen gen 3 cold air intake for my 2012 nismo. The thing is that i want to save a few bucks installing it myself, instead of having the dealership do it. Does anyone have the stillen cold air on their nismo, I just want to know if there is anything I need to worry about, fitting wise?

Fitting wise you’re going to have to mod. Per Stillen’s web site. Fits NISMO 370Z w/Modifications (Nismo Instructions not currently supplied)

So, did you get it on? I had to move my horn, and cut one of the panels to get everything to fit right. Also, you have to put a small hose piece over one of the A/C lines so that the tube doesn't rub against it.

I got them on, could it be me, but when I went out for a ride. The sound and power were there, the only thing I noticed is that my mph were going up pretty slow then normal,like if something was holding the car down, like if it was dragging and yes I had my windows up and my a/c off. Is this normal or is it just me?
