It should all bolt up. I believe the one I bought is about 3.5" as well. Looks like you got a good deal on that one. Just remember .... no matter what others may tell ya' ..... you DO NOT have to install the filter from under the fender well. I put mine in from the top ..... I just had to position it in the precise orientation to get it to go in. Takes all of 10 minutes to do everything. If it does not work right .... ship it back & tell the seller that you demand a full refund, including the 2nd shipping charge. Leave negative feedback if he doesn't cooperate & report him to eBay by telling them he is selling it to fit a certain car, but it doesn't. By no means are you screwed ..... but I think it will work out fine.

Oh, & if you were going by the looks of it [you may or may not have known this] .... you have to take the MAF out of the big black housing. The adapter in their pic looks like it's the right one for our cars.

Thanks a lot guys. I will probably get a K&N just for kicks unless the one that comes with the kit looks decent. Everyone always said get the e-bay one so i figured i will give it a try.

Thanks.

Just an update. I am still waiting for my CAI. I e-mailed the seller and he replied the next day. I forgot to confirm my address since i recently moved. I confirmed and he e-mailed me the same day and shipped the same day withing about three hours of my e-mail. SO as long as the piece is decent for the price i would highly recommed buying for this seller. I should recieve it today, but i will be going to vegas @ about 3:00 or so. Hope it arrives early.

The piece arrived, for the price it is of good quality. I ran inot hte IAT not screwing in al the way does not seem to affect it much. There is a blowing noise it seems like but no check engine light and everything runs good. For those that said they could not fell a difference they are wrong. I feel a huge difference. Not 30 hp or anything but. But throttle response has improved and so has power (SOP). Plus it just sounds cool.
