Get the K & N rampod. Its worth the money in the end. If you want to use a $100 rampod then you will need to buy a piggy back ecu that will allow you to remove the air mass sensor. Other wise the the car will not run very well.
The mass sensor is located on the airbox where the pipe connects and has a simple plug. Its ok to disconnect the plug, just make sure you connect it before starting the engine.
Your car alarm is sounding because it has a built in voltage drop sensor which detects any drop in voltage. This is another way of protecting the car from being started. You should have a small black box in the engine bay which is the alarm. There should be a small key hole on it. You should also have a small key that came with the alarm. Use it to turn the alarm off. Now you can disconnect the battery.
