Looks good but I think you should cut a few inches off of the filter side of the piping. It appears like you may have a clearance issue or your filter may get crushed by the hood.

nice setup and autozone/kragen's/pepbizzoys rips off on those intake, all you need is the filter, get the pipe from home improvemt stores and save yourself 50 bucks. it's not like it's that damn hard to drill a hole in the a pipe for the pcv.

dude sharky, you know in your pic, the black tube that you ran from outside that directs air into the filter, it'd be sick if you can fabricate a shield that covers the filter, and have that black tube run into the boxed shield...then you'd have cold air! woot!

thats actually the tube that comes off the fans was just seeing how much air blows through there while the fane are on, i will be running some type of tube to manipulate air to the filter though.

i know this is a really old post..but i just wanted to say if you tilt the battery diagonally you can sit the filter down next to the radiator hose...i had to bend a few brake lines gently to get the clearance....plus you need to put sone kind of clamp on the vacuume line...i bought the exact same intake from ebay...i cut off 2.5 inches filter side and managed to fit it down in the engine bay..no clearance issues for the hood...i am going to put a scoop and filter box next

actually that tube wouldnt serve much purpose at all...gets much better airflow without restriction...i ripped ever plastic chunk of my old intake completely out...ill have pics soon

You don't need the tube which touches the red filter. It was on the stock air intake setup right? AND what is that red wire?
