Well today to my surprise I walk out my g/f because she had to go to work and there was a Fed Ex truck sitting in the drive so I immediately get all giddy like a 5 yr old at Toys R us. He had my aluminum intake tube from LSkoncepts.
Well here is the bad news, it came w/ a dent at the curve where it goes around the front and it had a couple of pit marks and it got another after I barely tapped it on something , but I did not let it get me down. Fitting was abit tough aswell, had to be alittle aggressive trying to get in to line up sort of right. Also had a problem w/ the nozle that is in the middle on the passenger side that you disconnect and have to reattach. Problem was the whole was not big enough for the piece to go back in so I than had to make a trip to lowes and get a 1 1/4 inch fernco(sp) and so that looks alittle eh now but its covered by the cover. Another thing was getting the air filter back on and keep it on but I go that easy and had to use a zip tie(for now) to hold the first rubber tube on just after the air sensor.
Another than all that it was a pretty good time:shifty: .
I started it up and checked everything over and than took it for a quick trip and its really nice. Even smoother feeling now and great get up. Car sounds amazing now aswell, I got on it and there was people outside their house and they whipped around to see what was screaming . Got home and checked everything again and the tube was pretty warm and had a smell but I guess that is going to be like that being alum.
Here are the pics:
Pics are alittle blah because it was dark out and dim in the garage I can better ones if anyone would like.
Thanks Ken, so far so good.
