No. Just take off the top of the stock airbox (as you would if you were to replace the filter) and take out the pipe. You have to remove a few clamps that connect to two hoses near the intake manifold. The bottom of the airbox has several bolts; just take them out and lift the entire airbox out.

NTPOG has a nice writeup on this. http://www.ntpog.org/mods/fifth-inta...h-intake.shtml

Well every thing pretty easy but taking the resonator out it real cramped but to get to it take the splash guard off and take the few bolts out. If you even have the slightest mechanical abillity you'll be abled to do it

you might want to lock the steering wheel to the left to make room for the airbox to come out.
