Hey Joe..
That looks just like an Injen knock off.. Very easy install. Remove your negative battery terminal first. Give your ECU some time to reset. Undue your stock airbox and remove the filter. There should only be a few bolts holding on the bottom piece with the resonator.. Pull it out.
Then the top tube connects to your MAF.. pretty easy to remove.. just 4 bolts.. need an extension to get to them though. Disconnect it first too.
Then there should be a couple of small rubber tubes leaveing the black intake pipe and going to your intake manifold and to the valve cover. Undo them with some needle nose. Loosen the clamp holding the intake pipe to the Throttle Body.. should be a couple screws holding the intake to the radiator supports.. And then that black pipe should pull right out.
Replace with the new shiney chrome pipe. Cut your blue tubes to length.. attach them to where the old ones went. Reattach the maf with the provided clamps and rubber lengths.. slap on your filter.. reconnect the maf.. Then reconnect your negative battery terminal. Get in and start it up. May idle a little rough.. Just drive it a little hard and aggressive. Let the ecu relearn how you drive with the new amount of air you are providing with your intake. After a day or two it should smooth out.

Thanks guys, Now i looked at it today, and the blue hoses dont fit over the inlets. 1 is pcv and the other 2 run to other places. But the hoses dont fit over the damn 2 big ones. Damn ebay. I might just go with 2 stock hoses and 1 blue one
