if you order an AEM intake, they come with directions (or so i've heard).

eh im under the general influence that oem instructions were written like 5 min before production and that them saying "put it in you car" would be equivilent of the advice they offer.

Haha, yea it is actually just that simple.
I am pretty sure that intake installs are the easiest installs.
Not much knowledge required, just the knowledge of how to 'operate' a ratchet basically.
Now, if you get an ebay intake, that is a little more complicated only because you may have to do some improvision.
But an AEM V2??
It should be more of a self-explanatory thing.
