Default Modification to vehicle?

I am very interested in purchasing this intake, however i noticed that under product info on aj-racing's site that modification to vehicle is required. What particularly does this mean? New front bumper with snorkal cut out, etc. Any insight would be awsome from anyone that has had this intake

i can't remember if you need to cut the hood to make this fit.

I thought it was the hood too. I was waiting on someone else to confirm this.

my first S(ap1), had this intake on it, but was taken off before sale. the hood was cut up to accompany the intake. it wasnt too much that was cut, i'd say a 4" by 6" area near the front.

But it isnt a complete pain in the arse to do? Because Modification and PRICE are the only cons that i can seem to find.

PM ya@inlinepro, he has one on his car, and it was a complete PITA to get it to fit and also a PITA to work with a carbon rad. shield.

Yeah, I wouldnt do it for those reasons.

Also, just take the stock intake cover off. It'll make a world of a difference
