decided to go the cheap way for now




i know its not the best set up but it works for now, im fairly happy with it and i can tell a mild increase in acceleration, also i was surprised at how loud it was.
ps. i had to use part of the stock set up do to the fact the 3.5" coupler wouldnt fit over the TB plus its much closer to the head-light for now, so flame away! lol

theres only maybe a 2 inch gap thats open on to the left next to windshield fluid reservoir which i plan closing off later, but even as of now u can feel that the air is colder on the intake side
About the worst thing you have remaining is the factory 'accordian'. You need to lose that to benefit from the CAI.
