remove the entire stock intake + airbox.
then install the cf one. tighten the clamps to hold it to the throttle body...install the intake pipe to the camcover breather....pretty much it

the notes are on that link bro, also you need zip ties because the bracket doesn't work, just bolt the bracket on and sipt tie the pod on to the bracket.

as benji said remove the old standard intake, and the vacuum hose, the bolts are around the edges and shit, then drop in the new one and use the clamps to fix it to the IM, then put the new hose what they gave you instead of your old one,. also did you buy the pass word JDM one or just any generic one, because as far as i kno only the password jdm brackets work lol for egs, lol the other ones dont

lol yeah got it from PW:JDM..
sweet so the bracket will fit! cheering!
so it should, the bloody thing cost me 300 big ones to get the thing here!
exactly the same as J's racing intake!!

What about the resonator at the front..
keep as is? or remove.??

you can keep the resonator there if you want.
but its best to take off the front bar , and remove it all to get some sort of air feed to the intake.
take your time and dont break too much lol

take it off aswell~, also be careful because when your tightening the pod on you will slip so dont go to hard out and smash the CF part lol, it happens, well not smash but scratch and crack and that

lol ok guys please let me know what you think.. i kinda rushed it a bit as i was on my lunch break lol lol..

i ended up pulling off only half of the resonator, the silicone connector piece from intake - throttle body was about 5mm too wide so i tightened it as much as i could.
also note that the rubber connectors for the sensor is loose - can i silicone that up? the original breather hose wouldnt detach from the other pipe cos theyre welded together (damn) so its sitting there pushed aside.
i ghetto'ed the mounting bracket a little hehe..

thanks bro,

Yeah i ordered directly from Password JDM site.
in total it set me back 280AUD.. which is pretty damn good as compared to the J's racing tsuchinoko intake (EXACTLY THE SAME) which is 380AUD.

i got the CF intake, they also have carbon kevlar.

ok guys so i've been driving around with this new setup and i found that a hissing noise is coming from the passenger side.. at first i thought it was the brakes, but it makes the sound even when i'm not using the brakes.. Is this cos of the intake or am i just going crazy??

HELP!!

i hope its the intake..
the brakes are the only thing else i can think of..
but the brakes should make a squealing noise shouldnt they!
