All you need is a flat screwdriver and pliers to get the clamps of the air intake tubes. Start with disconnecting MAF sensor wire, then take the top of the air filter box off together with MAF sensor. Then take the next extension tube off going to the engine. Now take the DISP valve off the engine, it is a black box sitting on the right side of the engine. It is bolted to the engine with two bolts. Now use the screwdriver and get that bad elbow part off the engine. In order to do that you have to take off two clamps one about an inch in diameter another one about 3 inches. Thats it. Replace the elbow tube and assemble everything in the reverse order.
