Fender Well Intake .56k ok .14 pics
Well guys I installed my Intense FWI today. and It only took me 2 hours
by myself. (having never done something like this before)
here is the break down with Pics
Intense supplys all parts and directions.
1 .Remove the stock air box and bellow -3 screws
remove PCM from air box - just slips out-sorry no pic
2 .remove IAT sensor from bellow
3 .jack up car and remove LF tire
4 .remove about 7 push tabs from inner fender well liner- carefully
5 . bend up out of way the fender liner.... hey look theres the horns.
6 .after cleaning area where air box was
Install PCM tray from Intense with 3 screws provided (i only used 2)
7 .snap PCM into tray
.Now on to the filter
8 . connect K&N filter to fender well hose
by the way the hose looks ruff/bumpy on the outside but is smooth on the inside.
9 .slide hose up the inside fender well and out through the hole
10. connect rubber coupler to the throttle body and connect IAT sensor the the coupling
11. connect hose to the coupling
connect IAT wire
I may cut it down as i think its a tad to long. but we'll see
replace inner fender well lining
replace tire
start car and you can hear the air going through the tubing.
Take for a test drive.

But I have a question. Is that filter waterproof? Would it be able to hold up to the elements of driving on the road? What prevents it from being destroyed with little rocks, possibly dirt, and water?

You noticed the extra 'volume' of the intake, sounds great doesnt it 
Good job and nice pic series.
I have had mine for a few months now and the filter is still clean living under there, it is pretty well protected with the valance tray.
