DONT DO IT!!!
before you do everyone is about to comment and tell you that they are worthless and just an expensive paperweight. they work just as well as a tornado system.....which is they dont work at all!
dont waste you time on it. just get a cold air intake and a good exhaust and that will help you more than a TBS ever will

It is just sandwiched between the throttle body and the intake manifold. Probably needs longer bolts and may need a gasket. Be sure that the new throttle body position doesn't cause problems with cable or hose routing.

Don't know what you're working on because you didn't say. Here's one set of instructions. If this doesn't help, Google is your friend.
