Its a bit more involved then a stock install but still very easy. You have to change out coolant lines, extend radiator hose, change out fuelrail fuel lines.
But I installed the intake, elec wp, linelock and new valve covers in about 3 hours by myself. But I'm really good at this stuff

You can do it while the intake is in but it wouldnt be fun.
Look at the back of your intake. On the driverside you will see where the installer plugged the hole with the brace fitting supplied with the intake. There should also be a ****** fitting with the kit, replace the plug with the ****** and run a hose and T into the heater hose.

So you really dont know the horsepower gains at the moment? Could you notice any difference with the intake manifold vs the stock? I love trickflow and everytime I see one of those intake manifold my mouth waters lol....I just dont have 800 bucks to cough out lol....

I thought it was more complicated than a little unplugging and hosing?
seems simple enough,, i thought it required removing the heads...n/m though!

This is the manifold I went with for my stage 2 heads and cams.

It looks like a spider :-)
On a stupider note, I'm not even sure I could use one of those. Mice would be all over up in there.
