    its how its done. rip box out, lay the pcm where the box was or zip tie it in, clamp filter to the maf tube. and thats it.

    That's how I did my initial set up. You can make a custom set up if you want to as well.

    This is my set up.

    looks sharp where did you relocate the mass air flow sensor?

    It's what the black coupler is bolted too.

    Filter - tube - coupler - MAF - coupler - TB

    The airbox comes apart in 3 sections, leave the section that the PCM snaps onto in the car. No reason to remove it unless you are doing a fender wall intake as there is plenty of room even for a setup like Stealthee's, and it still has a 3 inch tube pulling colder air in from behind the headlight.
