Today I tackled getting the intake pipe installed. Let's just say, its a really tight fit. But I got most of it done today.
I also took the time to round out the inner edge of the pipes to reduce drag. Here is the stock edge with some of it
rounded it so far.
Here is one of the pipe edges after rounding it out.
Here you can see the intake pipes installed. I modified the pipes that came with the kit by shortening the one that
attaches closest to the filter by about 2 inches. I also installed the intake pipe that houses the MAF with the MAF
inside the air box. This made a cleaner install of the intake pipes. I will have to extend the MAF wire harness.
From this pic, you can see that the hose from the AOS will attach to the intake pipe instead of the throttle body.
I assume this is to prevent blow back. If someone knows the exact reason for this, let me know. I'm just making an
educated guess.
