Installing an induction kit on a Duratec 16V engine?

Hi all,

I want to install an induction kit on my 1.4l Ford Fiesta 2003 with a Duratec 16v engine.

Now I get the basic idea of what I need to do, take the air cover off by unscrewing the two bolts at the front. Take the tubes out of each air hole, fit them to the induction kit. Tighten tubes with jubilee clips.

Is that the basic jist? I have an original air filter, do I need to take that out.

Update:

I want improved fuel economy and a cooler engine. Prick

    change to driving style with less acceleration etc are most productive fuel savers.

    changing induction kit will alter cars performance do bear in mind insurance company may invalid cover if not informed.

    check out car owners club forums and u tube for best answers. from your description you are simply altering air induction tract ? in which case no real performance changes will occur. if it came with newer maf etc then it can affect power etc.
