yeah... I bought a 45 degree silicone intake hose to go from the MAF to the throttle body, then just drilled a hole for the crankcase breather vent tube base piece... put a grommet in it, put the base plastic piece of that breather hose into the grommet, then just clicked that sucker right onto it...

and I used some black RTV silicone/sealant all around the top of the grommet to make sure there was no unwanted leaks...

no problems...


you need a 3 1/4", 45* intake hose... I got mine from here...

These places have about anything you would need for a custom intake except an air filter.

look on the K & N installation sheet for their intake... they list the grommet size you'd need... http://www.kandn.com/instructions/63-3059_inst.pdf
