I took the upper cowl piece (the visible trim piece) off. the lower cowl is not as much in the way and is more flexible. Made it easier to get the pipe that goes to the compressor inlet in place for sure. That time estimate is definitely fair.

What is the cowl piece you guys are talking about

And is there anything that I NEED to get under the car for

You are overthinking it bud. It's 2 pipes, some rubber connectors and some clamps basically

And to answer your question, you don't need to have the car lifted

wd-40. that's what you need.

the trim pieces below the windshield. have to take off the wiper arms (15mm nuts i think) and some clips, then it pulls out. pay attention to the rubber trim at the sides of the windshield, it hooks on to that. it just gives some more space to work behind the motor. there's a lower cowl piece that requires removing the headlights to get at a couple of the bolts I think, but i didn't need to touch that for this work.

Alright I got it on. It took me 4 hours.

How did you guys peel the sticker off the plexiglass? Mine peeled off in shreds so I put rubbing alcohol on it and just rubbed it off with my thumbs. I still have to do the back side tomorrow.

Yeah if I could change anything about my experience with this intake it would be not having the stupid sticker on there.

Soak it in water for a few hours and it will come off.

Yeah I used Goo Gone on it and it worked great. It looks really good now. I love this intake

Huge fan of the intake myself! I can really appreciate the thought that went in behind it.

It probably took me 10 hrs total to do the install but that's only because 4 of them were spent wrapping pipes in thermal tape. A full hour adjusting the pipes into place. And another fishing out a socket I dropped into the turbo pipe.

Final result!

You have to peel off the backing paper off that airbox lid so you can see the filter! Although its on there pretty good it took me about an hour to get both sides off.
