There it is!
=]
Lots of silicone couplers. Hahaha.
Nice work!

yeah i'll have to get some propper ones they are the rubber ones i had about.

the amount of extra torque in the mid range is very noted.........

Nice work

i know im

but how do you guys not worry about water?

Id love to go CAI but Im always terrified about sucking up water just before i almost take on the project, i live in an area that floods when you spill a glass of water outside.

how much of a risk is running it down like that?

Hey looks good! I hear you on the increased shove midrange

If you use a shallow filter (ie more like 3" high vs. 6-8" high), it's actually not that close to the ground. Unless you need to ford a stream to get to work, it should be fine.

well i did it to mine u can see it on the gallery but it gets a little wet from the fog light cover hole i was thinking of something that would cover it when you hit a big puddle like a heat shield but its not for the heat

dude,

my brother hit a puddle in his 300z and the intake brought in a few liters of water, totally Fubar'd the engine....threw a rod right through the oil pan!!!!

legend89chopped · 04-03-08, 10:18 AM

NICE. That filter is gigantic! I need one of those.

Mikeo · 04-03-08, 02:10 PM

Hey i got a way how to protect it from rain getting on it. A plastic piece cover where the fog light hole is at and drill some holes and Bam a way to protect away from water
