Hmmm...lets all say it together. If you install now make sure you get it tuned! There we go, now don't we all feel better.

Also, shouldn't be too hard to install. Upper IC is piece of cake. Lower should be fine too. Intake...should be easy. Always plan for unexpected events to make install longer. Just a helpful hint from someone who knows that a 3 hour install can turn into 2 days.

It is one tight fit for the upper i/c pipe thats about it. And the reason dude is being a *** about it is because if you install you intake your car will stall. But you have a stock bov so do worry about it to much just reset the batt. after install you should be fine.

+1 for tuning, LICP and UICP are a snap, intake is a matter of 10-15min.

How does a stock BOV and resetting your battery prevent your car from stalling?

and yes you should get it tuned after installing the intake and i/c pipe. if you don't, don't expect better performance out of it.

The Injen wont make the car stall. A VTA BOV will make it stall. The car wont make anymore power without a tune. Some will say it actually will lose power (Though I havent seen graphs to back this up). I have the Injen on my car untuned (getting tuned real soon). The misses RS definately spools alot more consistant with the stock airbox and a drop-in.

Come on man... you know that ALL cars will react differently to mods. just because he's adding a intake does NOT mean his car will stall.

I had a K&N Typhoon intake on my car untuned when i bought it and it ran fine.

Here we go again.................
