Gonna do this in a few days but had a question...

Does the Gen3 have any brackets to anchor the tubes anywhere inside the engine compartment or do they just attach at the TBs with the front filters resting inside the the bumper? Or is it the front core support holes that provide support?

In my past experiences most intakes have some sort of tab or arm that bolts too the engine bay or front support, but after reading this thread there is no mention of a support piece.

None that I remember. The pipes are attached to the TBs and the air filters at each end. Make sure to wrap your AC lines with some rubber material to prevent damage from the intake tubes rubbing against it.

It wasn't so bad was it. Did you wrap your AC lines?

I bought new AEM dry filters to replace the oiled ones so I'll be pulling off my front bumper again soon.

Need to do the same...

The kit came with AEM dry filters, didn't it? Do you have the order description handy to share? What did they cost?

I think if you order the intake from Stillen there may be an option to choose the dry filters or just simply ask them for the option, otherwise you're getting the oiled types.

I can snap a photo of the product # for you later. I ordered it straight from AEM but they were out of stock for over a month. Cost was roughly $70 for two dry filters.

Nice. No need to re-oil the damn thing :tup:

Installing mine now and ran into a slight issue. My passenger filter (dry filters btw) is all the way up against the sharp lip on the center bracket.

In all of the install threads and pics I've seen there appears to be some space here, although minimal. I can't find anything else out of place. Is this normal with the AEM dry filters? Should I be worried about that edge cutting into the filter over time?
