Thanks guys, my velocity stack was preinstalled into the cone when I got it so I think i must of missed it lol.

Is the velocity stack supposed to go inside the filter or just around it.

Edit: Yas after an hour and half I got the filter part installed LOL, not looking forward to hooking it up into the car :(

Thanks dude, do you know how I can get the screws of the clams on each end off too? The washers are straight welded to the clamp lol

Actually I'm going to home depot and getting a dremel to cut these clamps off lol
Good call. Dremel really is a must have. It has fixed many problems for me that would have been WAY tougher without. The diamond cutting wheel is expensive, but will easily cut just about anything (including porcelain tiles!)

One after another more problems lol

I used a dremel cut the clamps but now the next problem is the dam screws on the maf sensor, they're so tight that using a flat head just shreds the head

Any tips?

Got it to work.

Next to the battery was a 10mm screw, pro intake doesnt reach it when I connect to the grommet. Is it supposed to just not go in?

When the grommet goes in, the back side is too high for the 10mm to go all the way down to the chassis screw.

And the box wont go down any further
