Help with short ram install

I bought a fujita short ram intake pipe off eBay a while back it was closeout from extra stock before they went out of business so got it cheap. However that being said I need to find all other parts necessary for installation I already bought a coupler for throttle body to pipe. What else do I need? Where can I find it? And how do I install the setup on my 07 gd3 this will be my first mod to my fit on the engine I have don't this on a focus before so new to this lmk what I need to get an do to install thank you!

GD3 doesnt have a MAF. should be a cake walk. 2.5 inch on the throttlebody, rest is up to filter size. measure inside diameter.

If your intake doesnt have a nipple for the valvecover breather, go to partsstore adn get a 12mm crankcase breather and mount it on the breather tube. On my GE8, the valvecover has rubber hose to hardline that is part of coolant idler hardline, then my little filter. Check my picture album if you're not sure what filter Im talking about

Ok and what about where the hole is drilled in the intake piping is that where the oxygen sensor thing goes? The duckbill thing? Do I need a part for it?

That's for the IAT sensor. I think you can use the grommet from your stock intake.

Any rubber grommet will do. It's only purpose is to hold the IAT in place.

Ok I bought some off of eBay that were supposed to be the right size but they are a tiny bit loose on the pipe, will they work once the iat is in it?maybe the iat will stretch it a little?

Yeah, the IAT should tighten the rubber out.
