depends on what size MAF you have. i might have put the wrong size down, 4 in the TB side and 3.5 is the MAF side. They have these at Siliconintake.com. i will measure a MAF later and post the size. Im pretty sure its 3 or 3.5

are these about the same size as a stock/aftermarket elbow? or will the intake need to shift over in order for it to fit?

hopefully that makes sense..

From what I had:

Stock - Torn when I got the car

1LE- Good choice, could tear eventually, but nice factory piece.

Vortech - Had that stupid divider in it

Trick Flow- Favorite, polymer so it wont heat soak like metal, but it wont tear like a rubber one will eventually.

The intake should fit perfect with this. Unlike the aftermarket elbows this doe snot need cut to fit a CAI and has a little give so the CAI will fit nicly right by the ABS pump.
