How do I remove the stock airbox ?
I plan on installing my MBC and in order to do so i've heard that you should remove the stock air box. All I can see so far are the 2 bolts, one at the bottom of the airbox and one on the right side, what size are these bolts? Is there anything else that is holding the airbox in that I should know of?

Check this link:

Step 1-8 describes how to remove the air box. Also if the 10mm bolt doesn't work move to the next bigger/smaller size.

If you're close to Pearland then drop me a PM and I can help you this weekend if you want to drive over.

Yeah, I got the right bolt size and everything now. I'm gonna do the whole install on saturday so the engine can cool overnight so I don't burn my hands to hell.
