Dude, what brand CAI did you get? Or is this something you're trying to throw together yourself?

Well, CAI wise, you need to be working before the MAF sensor. The MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor measures air flow. So you need to have an adapter that will bolt up to the MAF, and from there on, you can arrange it in almost any configuration you wish.

You will need to reset your ECU once its properly installed so the computer "learns" the new intake and adjusts itself properly.

Of course, you could always do a SEARCH on those brave souls that have done this before you. I'm too chicken.
