    I think we got a little anxious in the cutting and miscut one of the sections with the bend in it.

    Dude since I cut mine on weird angles just follow the one that frantik wrote up,IMO onece you make the the cut on the piece from the throttlebody just use your own judgement on the rest of the bends/cuts, since my bends were out of place thats the reason I moved the battery.

    It was like $30. for the pipe another $10. for 3 of the couplers and I think the breather tube pipe was like $10. from pepboys. I reused my old air filter.
