Default installing AEM cai and spugen single

I'd like to know if there is a specific order to install these components. Will I need to reset the computer? Also I have performed a few searches on Aem install but it seems the post are too old and can't see the pics does anyone have any install pics. I'm looking for the area that requires cutting. I read a post that said a 3" hole saw could be used for the install is this true?

A 3" hole won't be big enough. A Dremel tool works good, too.
No, you don't have to re-set the ECU unless you get the vacuum hoses mixed up, then you need to get them in the correct places, then do a re-set. Here's a couple of pics to give an idea of where the holes are. It doesn't matter which you do first, intake or exhaust as neither will affect the ECU in a bad way.

thanks guys,

After reading a few post I was not clear on what was being cut. Thanks for posting the pics and suggestions on cutting. Did you guys have to take off the bumper to do the install? It almost looks like you can snake it down piece by piece.

I didnt remove the bumper when i did the install. A couple of interesting tidbits: I had an extra hose. Didnt know where it came from. Followed the directions to the T...but still no indication what its for. Another thing is one of the bolts didnt fit (good thing i had a different size laying around)...overall it took me 3-4 hours. But the only reason why was i had to fish around for the proper tools...(my garage is a freaking mess) I spent 20 min looking for batteries and another 20 for a phillips head...
