My cheep *** self only spent $300 so far, heres what I got:

Spectra Cai from Oreileys auto $25 filter and some extra parts laying around from the whipwhipwhipwhip build up


Routed the ducting $20 behind the headlight into the grill by the fog light.


Little tight but no cutting required


black sip ties to the grill and a little trimming of the air scoop for the rad was needed.

 

THrush welded mufflers replaced the stockers

Stock tips welded back on.

 

Sorry about the pic size lol too lazy to resize them

 

Where did you but the Mufflers from? I know they are same design as flowmasters.
Did you buy them online?

 

bought them from the shop that did the swap but I would buy them from jegs, they are way cheaper.

 

Your throttle body control is different....AH HA '08 change!!!

Is that a cotton filter or a Stainless mesh filter?

 

Cotton mesh, Is there any benifit to going with steel?

 

Steel tends to have a higher flow, less restrictive, no absorption.

 

less filtration?

 

not really. it still keeps the bad **** out, and lets a bit more cold air in.

 

Those filters really intrigue me...

 

IMO All filters besides OEM let more bad stuff into the engine. Now will it hurt it thats another story. You ever hear those stories about world war 2 how when a engine on the airplanes would burn to much oil they would throw small amounts flour into the intake to scuff the sides of the pistons ? Now i know the engines where a bit diffrent but the idea is interesting.
