Not easy at all. I have to remove the entire air intake assembly, which seems pretty complicated. The stock 50i is already fast enough to me, Im not sure if it worth all the trouble. Will Racechip be able to remove the turbo lag under 2000rpm?
Lol the air box is like 7 screws and two clamps. Takes 5 minutes with a drill and a T-20 bit man. Then you have to in bolt one small reservoir with like 2-3 bolts. Cmon now. It literally took me an hour and that's cuz I didn't know where the intercoolers were at the time.

If you can change your air filter you can change this. And yes there is virtually no lag since it causes them to spool up early and often.
