need help with AEM cai DIY install

I want to install my AEM cai on my 07 rx8 but dont know if i will be biting off more than i can chew. Im no mechanic but I know my way under the hood. I have the instructions but im affraid I might hit a stumbling block and wont know my way back. Just wondering if its worth doing it myself or leaving it to the pros.

Do it yourself.
Once you get done, you'll realize how simple it is.
Also, the instructions say to remove the front wheels... this is not necessary.

I have just done it on mine... Its going to take you couple hours, but its very easy...
As Jon316G have said, you dont need to remove the front wheel. Read through the instructions, and I think once you remove the front bumper, you will have a clear picture of what's going on and which steps you can ignore...

Good Luck =)
