Anyone got one of these?
I just received mine and wonder if anyone has some suggestions on install.
Those instructions are so helpful (NOT).

Well the short ram should be REAL easy to do compared to a CAI.

All done went pretty easy. Spent more time cleaning up my wiring. Looks pretty good and performs excellent. I love the new sound. Some picks on myspace at spaces.msn.com/jaloos01/You can also see my DIY ground kit. I am currently working on painting my engine cover to match the blue pipe on intake. |

The intake looks really nice! And I have to admit I did have some reservations about your ground kit at first, but it came out REALLY nice! Clean! Just how I like it! Nice work!

Usually with the Short Ram you will not get a CEL. It is more likely with a CAI.
