yes

install:
based on papa_bears injen install...

STOP at unscrewing the ECU screws

the rubber screw thing doesnt go in the same places...instead it goes where the bolt for the snorkel goes

angle the negative connection on the battery

loosen all the rubber couplers

coupler @ throttle then 1st tube then next coupler

unbolt under the car to slide the filter in, let it rest there and just bring it up enough to tighten it with the 2nd tube in it

connect both tubes at coupler
