Do a search for Vararam install, Cajundude has a great write up. Its very easy, and I hate to say this, but after you do it, you'll realize you didn't need the pictures anyway.

Hey Dave, what are your impressions since adding the vararam? After I installed mine, I noticed an immediate SOTP performance increase...What do you think so far?

If you have the K&N filter, I would silicone it in place so there is no chance of dirt getting past.
