Default Here's lltek's kit

I would try to make it almost identical to this. I think I've seen a writeup on how to make one yourself, but don't remember where, maybe AW tech section?

Default Don't think he has to worry about that on his 2.8 :)

I just made mine last week. Just used a 3" OD aluminum tube and welded it to a plate that had 4 mounting holes to mate up with the maf. Thats about it. Add a support bracket and some heat shielding, which I do not have yet, but have determined you need, even on a 2.8 and your done. As philly said, I just copied LLTEKS. Order the K&amp;N for like $40. Also got one for the air injection pump, the little filter
