Apparently you need to take off the headers and etc. I didnt! i just took couple things off, details below. Also listed what tools you would need in each step to make things easier. Unfortunately i didnt take full pictures of this DIY, if anyone could post pictures for the areas i worked on would be perfect.
Proceed at your own risk....

4. Now go up and remove top engine cover with 10mm deep socket
5. Remove intake bolts x2 using 10mm socket
6. Remove maf sensor line
7. Loosen ring (1)clamp with 8mm deep socket. Note: this is where your intake tube is connected to the throttle body
8. Remove vacuum line with pliers
9. REMOVE your intake assembly
10. Take off heat shield use a 3/8 ratchet 6point 12mm socket 4 bolts, optional to use an extension
11. Remove 14mm nut on top engine mount, use 1/2 ratchet with 14mm 6 point deep wobble socket + 12-24'' extension. Note: Use 6 point socket only!
12. Once you loosened the nut use a short 4-6'' 14mm wrench to loosen the nut until you can use your fingers to take it off

15. Jack it up enough till the top bolt is free from the top engine mount area. If you cant fit the new mount, loosen the bottom 17mm nut on the right side engine mount for more room
16. Replace it with the new one, note: dont forget the black bracket on top of the mount bushing, position it and stick it up in the exisiting spot
17. Install the top 14mm nut first
18. Install the 17mm nut and your done!
19. Now installation is backwards and easy.
