uhm...yeah, there is this website called scion life, and they actually have quite a few handy DIY tech articles about installing such things...usually you find them using the SEARCH feature.

never hurts to ask but you should be a little more specific with type and brand so we can narrow it down to help you out.

I do. It's loud enough already so I won't be doing anything with the exhaust. The Injen intake makes a nice deep sound. I think it's perfect. As for performance, I didn't expect much of an increase and I don't really care. People get the intake for the sound.

Btw, if you get the Injen CAI then you also need to buy Dr. Isotope's CAI fender mounting bracket. My intake broke its mount through natural wear and tear, which is what happens to most people, and then it started rattling like a bítch. I just finished fixing the broken mount today. Ended up getting my arm all scratched up and bleeding too.

Well, he is a Honda guy, so maybe he means no exhaust.
