. I did end up shaving some of the radiator support to make the tubes fit better. You don't have to, but it makes it easier to slide through and not look as pinched.
Been busy so forgot to update. Install went pretty good, I also cleaned my throttle bodies while I was at it, and changed spark plugs

You HAVE to unplug the sensor and put it in the new intake, not sure where the confusion or scare is coming from. WORST CASE, reset the ECU using the easy method. There's nothing to be afraid of, it wont blow up...
But those ain't cheap, and your car will run like crap if it is messed up.
So yes, as long as you don't turn your car on at all until after the install, you ll be fine
There must be some confusion lol. You absolutely MUST unscrew the 2 screws to transfer them to the new pipe. You DONT have to unplug them from the harness though, if that's what's scaring everyone, not that it would matter though. The engine is off...
