Tools required:
1. Phillips Screwdriver
2. Standard Screwdriver
3. Beer
And of course......AFE DAS's.
Step 1. Remove stock air scoop by removing 3 plastic rivets.
Have a beer....and know...you are half way done with this diy.
Step 2. Remove 2 phillips head screws....hidden below the intake, and pull out on grille scoops, and put the DAS in. The green dots below indicate approximate position of screws. Reinstall intake and three pop rivets.
Have a beer and enjoy a 40Hp gain. Cheers.

Dane,
are you worried about any increase in rainwater passing into the intake?

I don't think that is going to be too much of an issue unless he nose plows into some puddles or a truck decides to use his car to show what a wave looks like hitting a BMW.
All modern airboxes have water outlets at the bottom of the box to let out large amounts of water. Plus it would take a substantial amount of water to hydrolock an engine. Substantial amount as in more than rainwater (short of possibly a hurricane) can produce. Most water that does get sucked into our airboxes on normal rainy day situations gets vaporized anyway.
Just my 2 cents
I really have no idea what I am doing

Too bad you can't prove these on a dyno unless you were in a NASA Wind Tunnel. I'm sure you'll feel a difference at WOT

Totally! Did you keep your stock air box? I wonder if you could feel a difference between the two with the scoops.
