ADD the AFE Stage II CAI today

[MM-JAPAN]

I know theirs hundreds of posts on this subject but I just wanted to add my experience to the list.

Taking out the existing OEM CAI wasn't a problem then I put in the AFE CAI system and things went smoothly for the most part, I was somewhat prepared on what to expect from reading every one elses post.
Only things I want to make note, the hose to the crank case breather was a bit long and I had to cut it (after I put the engine cover back on I should have left a little more length to it. Next the install the trim seal along the edge before install the bracket.

I sprayed WD40 around the sensor in the old system which seem to help a bit and I sprayed it on the AFE rubber gromment which seem to help to put it in the TUBE and I think it help with putting the sensor in. Everything but the sensor maybe took 30 min. the sensor took another 30 min.

I need to find out the sensor part number, because when I did remove it from the OEM system, a small plastic piece came out and fell at the botton, I tried pulling it up with some tape but then it feel off again and I can't find where it went, it seems it is the piece that holds the lock down botton in place. The piece that has the wires coming from it slids on the sensors and the lock down button pushes forward and stays but I'm able to take the whole piece (with wires) and unplug the sensor with no pressure to hold it on. So I think it will come off. I will try to get someone to pull the bottom piece off under the car and see if that plastic piece fars out some where, otherwise I'll but another sensor system.
