Cool Air Intake
I got me a CAI finally, Thanks again 94bonni, though the filter started to aggravate me when i had to 'recharge it' 4 times...and its still not completely clean, but it'* good and almost white now, lol. There was no way I was gonna keep it red, unless i had some other red stuff under the hood, and i dont plan on it so its Gloss White...though after the fact i think Flat White would have looked more in place, but w/e
one problem i think i might have is, 94bonni didn't have the double washer fluid tank, i do, im hoping it will still fit...i kinda held it up over the engine in the general area and it kinda looks like i may have a problem, but just by a tad, so i may end up having to cut the pipe more...
I got my acrylic sheets to make a box, im wondering though what to use to connect the sides, what have you used...or what opions of what i should use

Cut your pipe at an angle at the TB to make it fit. Your reducer too, if necessary.
You probably killed that filter by recharging it 4 times. It should be red, not white.

I HAVE the K&N Recharger Kit
I 'recharged' the filter four times because the first 3 times did not do the job completely
The filter is now white because it is cleaned, i know and will oil it before it goes on the car...
probably after it has gone on and off a few times while i make the box...cuz i dont wanna keep touching it and getting the red oil all on me and other things constantly...but it will be oiled before the car is started

There is a limited number of times you can clean that before the media starts to break down. You should have cleaned it once and re-oiled it per the instructions.
You should only have to clean it once or twice a year at most.
