Have to route to a FMIC also, and more then likely pull the a/c to make it work..

The air comes from the inlet side of the procharger which is mounted near the bottom of the engine and has a drain tile looking hose coming off it that goes behind the fog light to a coned filter. Is how the stock setups go. Its also extremely restrictive guys have modified their intakes and have seen substantial gains in boost.

Promised on the 16th, delivered on the 16th! Installed on the 16th.

Looks really good, but I need to work on fitting the shaker scoop to the box. I am very pleased with the box and the powdercoating work!

Raleigh TA, it looks like your shaker is mounted further back than mine is. How did you secure yours to the airbox? Mine is held in place by the same bolts that secure that metal piece that holds the filter in place (not sure if that is the way it's supposed to be).

my hood was cut long before I got the airbox and I had no flexibility on where I could mount the shaker. Currently I have it attached with Velcro strips, and a bit of the filter is showing in front of the scoop. I am not sure how I will address this.

Your car looks great! I imagine you are getting a ton of compliments from people that see it in person!
