Remove the stock air box and stock intake pipe. Install aftermarket cone on pipe and install pipe on motor. Done. If it takes you more than 10 minutes you're trying to hard.

While in most cases this is true, the AEM CAI is a bitch to get on. The filter is way too big to put on the pipe first, you have to mount the pipe and then jack the car up, move the horn, then fidget with the filter. You have to get a little lucky because there is NO room where they expect the filter to go. But once you get the filter on, your good to go. Make sure you use the little breather hose that connects to the valve cover. There are several guides on the internet that give pictures and shit if you really need them, just do a quick google search. Many CAI's come with mounting instructions, but like gthompson said, 95% of them are really easy and a monkey could do it in 15 mins.

alright guys thanks alot im gonna go do it right now ill let you know how it went.....thanks

Well sorry to break it to you. But noone makes a cool air intake for your car.

What the hell are you talking about? There are actually two different ones, a short ram and a cold-air intake. AEM makes one for christs sake and it's like $200.

There is one, just check ebay. There isn't much of a difference performance wise between the short-ram and a company based one, and it'll save you like $170. I bought a $30 short-ram intake off ebay and have been more than happy with it.

What the hell am I talking about? I think I know I own a GS Spyder. APC makes some crappy ass intake pipe and filter but its like some airflow sensor delete shit. Im sorry but noone else makes any type of intake for the 4g64 Spyder. Just because it says "non-turbo" on the item description doesnt mean its for the non turbo spyder. It most likely applies to the 420a. If you want any type of intake your gonna have to rig up something like I did. Cosmo racing makes an air filter adapter something like my self-made K&N system, but thats it. If you want a complete intake you better buy some piping and a welder.

If you buy one of the ones that supposidly work for a 2.4l gs model what do you do with the mass air flow sensor?
