ok so basically while i am trying to install my intake btw i went short ram because im low on cash and the dyno was better hopefully it will be better, anyway i was trying to install it when i ran into a snag. Under the stock airbox, there are two bolts where i should bolt my intake down, the intake manual does not picture what is on my car. These bolts hold down an assembly that has a long tube attached to it. Im not sure what it is PLEASE HELP oh and if i take out one of the bolts and install the intake bolt do you think it will be alright? pics up soon
PICS:

THATS THE WIRE

THOSE ARE THE BOLTS I BELIEVE

The first picture is the clutch line, I'm assuming your car is a manual transmission and you need that in place for proper operation.

You could remove one bolt and you should be fine, but I don't see why you should have to unless the intake comes with a bushing that threads into that hole to hold down the clutch line plate, and the intake.

yeah its manual, i was thinking it had to do with the tranny because the Intake manual didnt picture this part and then i read for A/T only... i do need a bushing to hold down the intake so it is secure and thats where the bolt is.

today i just tried to take off one of the bolts but its really tight and i do not have the exacty size to take it off. would a torque wrench be the correct remedy for this? or what should i do, I might try using my friends tools since his dad has alot

You will need a flarenut wrench. I think 10mm.

finished.. is it bad if my engine stalled the first time i started it up? it didnt immediatly stall, im guessing the ecu just was like wow and missapplied or did something to cause a stall.. anyway gains are quit noticable, i do believe that even with the heatsoak, it is still quite an improvement in sound, as well as performance. I really liked the sound. overall deeper tone to my engine. i have the 6i 2.3 MTX btw for everybody's info. and this was an AEM SRS or short ram intake.. i will get pics up soon
