Man I hate sitting my hood by push hard with my hands. I usually grab my hood latch pull it down hard and let it go. Feel like I'm gonna dent my hood pushing down on it. Not to mention two big hand prints. Hhmmmm. It should get easier with time as it compresses the hood liner in the areas the box makes contact.

Just installed mine today, the hood closes no problem seems like it fits good.

Currently installing my Intake but the screws for installing the MAF sensor don't seem to fit... Did anyone else have this problem??

The screws for the MAF that Steeda provided fit perfectly.

Don't use your old screws!!

You'd have to clean it with alcohol or some other apc.

I cleaned the inside off. Of course I wasn't smart enough to do that first so I still had a little bit of trouble getting one side to stick.

It closes no problem but I have to push hard on the hood to close it. I can tell the seal on the box is pressing on the hood a little. A

I reused the stock screws. I actually didn't realize Steeda provided screws until the install was complete. The stock screws worked perfectly for me.
Same here, used the stock screws even for the very last bottom hole for the box itself!

The IAT's do look high at idle! My seal was a pain in the ass to put on! I m still not sure if its sealed completely.

I had the seal on in less than 2 minutes, where are you guys running into trouble on it? The biggest pain of the install for me was using a handsaw to get the resonator thing off the intake piece you reuse. Overall, I couldn't believe how simple the install was.
