You'll need a coupler, rubber or preferably reinforced silicon. The coupler will need to fit over the end(on the outside) of the lid.
IMO, to benefit from the 85mm MAFS you need to have the car tuned for it. Even then the gains are minimal if you're stock or close to it.

I got one on my car I will take some shots of it in a little while.When I bought the car it had it on there.i also have a 85mm throttle body.If you are using the stock throttle body you will have to get a reduced bellow to fit your throttle body.
