Default CAI on a 4th Gen

Quick question:

When installing a AEM cold air intake on a 4th gen, do you have to do any adjusting to the battery or any cutting to the engine bay??? thx

once you've taken out your stock intake.... there is going to be a hole that goes into your fender.... you will have to make that hole larger so that the rest of the piping may fit down below into the bumper.... i suggest using a dremmel, or some kind of power tool that will cut metal....cuz it gets tedious if you use something small.

make sure you cut the lower one, not the one on the side.

The whole size needs to be 3x5 inorder to fit the piping in there....Make sure to cover the edges of the metal with something to pretty rubbing and cutting into the CAI...

Good luck....I used a small hack saw to make the cuts, but I have also seen people drill about 50 holes and then hit is with a hammer...Not the best thing to do but it works....
