Nope, Home Depot. You can get everything you need there except the filter. The PVC should be about $4 and about $2 each for the elbows. The boot with clamps will be in the same aisle and run you about $9. Then hop on over and get a can of spray paint, you really don't need high temp. Lately I've been using Plasti-Dip at $6 a can and spraying it on as it's a temperature insulator. I dunno if it makes any big difference, but as long as the color I'm doing is available, I get it. Oh and pick up a rubber grommet for the air sensor and crankcase vent tube. If you want to put a mini filter on the vent tube and not run it through the CAI, then get you a $8 one at the auto parts store when you get the filter.

If you decide to build a heat shield, supplies for that can be found at Home Depot (or any other hardware store) also...
