yea length was the issue. He trimmed it down a little bit at the opening and jammed it on there. it's wedged between the frame rail and the turbo so it's not going anywhere lol

yeah the filter is really large, the 9" length is the issue. I cut off the clamp portion of the rubber, just to the end of the original clamp spot. Then I t-bolt clamped it to the turbo..i'll take a picture tomorrow and post it up on how i got it to fit.

Daily driver? Hope you live close to work and up north. No A/C and 3 SPD doesn't sound like much fun in a daily. Don't take that the wrong way. I'm not knocking you. What rear gear are you going to run? I've seen alot of guys with 2.73's and 3.08's with turbos run good numbers and that wouldn't be too bad.

ive driven plenty of 3 speed cars that were perfectly suitable for daily driving. granted they had 3.27 or lower gears lol

I grew up with 3 spds and I wouldn't give up the OD on a daily driver after cruising so many years at 3k rpms with the old automatics. Not saying it couldn't be done, just not enjoyable for me anyway. Sorry to the OP for bogging down the thread.

I hear ya about the windows. I enjoy it too but I do like the option to turn the AC on. My kids like the A/C.

i agree on the daily part but **** it. if i was like the OP id deal with it. sometimes you can only afford one car and the creature comforts get put way far on the back burner when that boost kicks in....

I have been driving it for about two weeks now with no a/c in orlando, FL..pretty damn hot lol, but once the windows are down and you're moving..it's really not bad at all! I still have a 4l60-e in it right now, waiting on my rossler th400. I'm going to be running a 3.00 motive gear. So it won't be too bad. I live maybee 5 miles from my dealership, and i'm here before the sun comes up, and i leave after the sun goes down. So it's all good
