Default Nice Job Dave....

Looks familiar

I did a little fab work w/ the stock airbox to come up with something similar. Did you have to relocate the horns as well...?

What I did was I went straight through with a 3" Y pipe that runs straight through to the wheel well as the Y bends off early up to the airbox. I figured if there was a way for the air to pass through it would produce less restriction than just right to the airbox. It also helps stop the rain from getting sucked up into my airbox and trashing my filter...It worked out well...

Another fine job of craftsmanship!

Default That was a joke,dufus.

The place is called Norell Plastics. Don't know if it's just a local place or not. Look in the YELLOW PAGES under plastics and call some of the places.When I do Jaime's it will be different due to the proximity of the turbo and the heat from up. I'll show you when it's done.

Default Did you have to move/remove anything to route it?

Did you have to move or remove any parts to route it from the lower grill into the airbox area?

Looks like a great setup. Does it feel better than stock?
