Yah.. I was worried, because I could see the MAP on the image above, wich is pretty essential for the running of your engine hahah.

Cool.. just put mine on.. felt a little difference. I guess there's a difference with the 06, there's a couple steps I had to do different from the instructions they gave me.


Ok.. for the valve (not the MAP sensor) on the top of the airbox.. don't pry it, it's screwed to the airbox (if you look close you can see that I snapped a piece off of it trying to pry it.. as per the instructions) Remove the airbox and then unscrew it from the bottom using a phillips screwdriver.



The bracket to hold the valve does not fit, because ther is no snap, only a bolt. I had to twist the bracket so that the lines weren't pinched or twisted up. I found a large washer so that I could bolt it to the bracket (red arrow).



The cable for the MAP sensor is a little short so I had to do the following:

1.Cut the tape a bit so that I could loosen the MAP wiring from the harness (red arrow).
2.Undo the harness bracket (green arrow).
3.Pull in the direction of the yellow arrow and re-snap the bracket.
4.Route the cable so that I could get it to plug into the MAP sensor (blue arrow).

Make sure you allow about an inch of play in the wire because your engine and intake are going to move around while your driving.

No... the intake comes in polished aluminum, silver, blue, or red. At least as far as I know
