JMP Fenderwell intake is amazing, but the shipping time is usually slow on that, (WBS is like a one-man show) and you have to cut your fender for the install

i would say 3, only because i had to shim mine to line up just right in the front. it is very easy make sure to clean all connctions so they seal tight, filter should be pre-oiled, and box has 2 bolts holding it down. Some like mine has boltdowns for pcm and ?air bag sensor?, also pretty straitforward. stop waiting and order one, and by the way once you start to mod you can't stop. lol

good luck with your bank account

Great thread, so basically Wiz air and Cold air inductions have the same appearance, but do they perform the same? same hp gains? (looks other than cai having to use own tubing)

I never looked up the wiz-air, don't think it is availiable for my car (06) anyone know the price difference? CAI from cold air inductions is $265+, got mine for $190 from a member here through e-bay buy it now/best offer!!

I think the Wizair, and the Coldairinductions CAI's will yield the same gains.

scale of 1-10, I would give the job a simple 2.

It's mostly just disconnecting your old intake and yanking it out, and putting the new one in. The hardest part will probably just be the PCM wires. Just take your time but it is REALLY easy to do.
