It's a torx security bolt, you need the torx security bit for it. The bit has a hole in the center to accept the nipple. crappy tire or princess auto should hav e the bits.

No need to take the MAF outta the housing for a short ram intake, just need a philips screwdriver.

Princess auto has two, a red case with security bits for a socket and a green case with a full screwdriver set (get that one) the bits are much stronger and its a better value.

Most shorty intakes(I'm not sure about the bomz) use the stock maf housing in the system, so you do not need to remove the maf sensor.

Yup, exactly.

Just take the snorkel tube off the one end, and the airbox off the other end, and voila you're ready to put the new short ram snorkel on the left side and the filter on the right. Installing a short ram intake is like a 10 minute job, you'll see what I mean when you get to it.
