If you go to http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=69-6540TB there are installation instructions for the K&N intake. These instructions should work for any intake for this car.

Either one is good. AEM is also an option.

The cheapest way to get a good intake is to just get the MAF sensor adapter on ebay (it will come with an air filter, just don't use it). Stop by the the auto parts store and you can get a K&N cone filter.

You can use the factory air pipe (rubber, accordian-style pipe).
Bolt the MAF Sensor adapter to the factory MAF sensor.
Attach the cone filter.
Start car and enjoy.

Now you have a short ram intake for less than $50.
