It came w/ a hole. It was a breeze to install.

I made my own forced air. I noticed a huge throttle response difference

I just ordered my 45 degree angles. I went w/ 5.5" rather than 7" because of space. I have noticed a big difference even w/ out the angles. Should work even better by sometime the end of this week or beginning of this week. I will post more pics when done.

yeah, I'd like to know how you routed the pipe, how you attached it. Looks awfully close to the exhaust manifold...

I ran the intake hose from the front bumper on the outside of the frame up the inside wall. It roughly 2.5" from the manifold. It's pretty close but I drove around town for 30 min in stop/go traffic and it was hardly even heated up at all. For now it seems to be fine. I'll have to recheck it when its warmer out.

I'm new at this, so its trial by error. But seems good so far. If it fails or melts I will be the 1st to tell you.

I've got the same in red, but couldn't figure out where to route the breather hose.

i would recommend that you swap those filters out to be honest. im assuming they called them "high air flow filters" but they are probably not the greatest. Id personally get the k&n's for it but they are pricey. just something thats an upgrade for better filtration and air flow

When I'm done the filter won't matter. I'm gonna have that air blasting right into the engine. But I will probably upgrade to a better filter sometime in the future. Thanx for the input, I appreciate it.
