All intakes bolt in very easily. Just a couple sockets, screwdriver, and an allen wrench.Should take about 30 minutes.

I have the Injen on my 2.5 and I love the sound, it gets real deep around 35k rpm.

The K & N and the AEM intakes have the intake blocked off (partially) from the engine heat so those will be your best bet if you don't mind the extra cash

It will be very easy to install. As long as the check engine light is off when your done you are straight. The K&N sounds so sexy. I also got a whistle sound, not sure if we all get to enjoy that though.
