Stock Intake Help
I'm bout to install the RRM clutch line and I'm not exactly sure how to get the stock air box out. Can somebody tell me all the screws and nuts and such that I need undo?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Bolts sometimes are sticky. Recommend spraying with WD40 before even trying to loosen them. They may come off easily. Just be patient.
3. Next remove bolts holding air box to bracket on inner fender. Remove entire assembly.

7. Reconnect MAS plug and battery cable. Start your car check for leaks or loose bracket.

On the front of the scoop looking thing there are two plastic push nuts. If you just press the inside of them down they will release. You have to reset them before you put them back in. There are two or three 10mm bolts around the base take those out. loosen the rubber pipe going to the airbox and take it out and thats it. To reset the push pins the center of the push pin push from the bottom up to relock it and then locate it back in the hole. Hope it goes good man let me know if you need anymore help.

If you're careful, nothing will happen, but it's just a good idea/habit to disconnect your battery whenever you're working under there replacing stuff. Keeps you from accidentally frying something.

Ok, so I finally got one end of the restrictor off but I f'd around with the other 10mm nut last night and this morning and it wont budge. It's pretty much stripped now. I've been trying to use locking pliers now and the freaking thing still wont turn.
Anybody have some help for me? I'm really getting frustrated.
