If you have a SAI there is a ribbed hose that runs into the airbox, you put an adapter on the end of it that connects to that piece on the CAI

for summer safe (not that were having much of a summer) for winter ide proberbly move it up. tbh in winter i would  have mine routed up near the top of the bonnet just to be safe (i know its not sucking in the coldest air, but hey ho. could always get a cold air feed.)

Yes you will need to use the small filter.

Sorry, wires crossed if your running the SAI set up (pipe on the side of the airbox) the you use the adaptor (no 1) and small piece of pipe (no 2)to connect to the induction pipe (no 3 is the outlet).

You only use the filter if the pipe has not got a outlet.

Well if it does not then just blank the outlet on the pipe.
