Plenum installation
I'll be picking up my C&L plenum tomorrow and just wanted to see if there are any specific instructions I need cause I am buying it off of someone who never installed it. I think it is just bolt on like the stock one but just checking.

make sure you disconnect the battery before you take the stock plenum off so the computer resets when you reconnect the battery after the new plenum is installed, or else your car will idle at 2500rpm because of the higher volume of air going in and the computer not recognizing it. install is easy and only takes about 15 minutes with a screw driver and 1 or 2 sockets, goes right in like the stock plenum.

HAHAAHAHAHHA that is funny, who told you that? of course, you bought a plasma booster soyou probibly believe most of the BS people tell you.
i've thrown 4-5 different plenums testing them out at the track, a couple different TB's too. it has never idled funny.
to original poster it takes a screwdriver to undo the tube and a 8mm socket and a 10mm socket with an extension, shoot yourself if it takes more than 8-10 min. if you have EGR still, you may need a wrench to get the egr tube off.
