Here's my new custom CAI
#23
i purchased the ebay kit for like 50 dollars shipped, and bought clamps as well as a foot of 4" aluminum tubing, and an extra elbow, to see if i could play alil with it, 60$ from Airflow Tech. all totalling 110. i'm in the process of building mine today, will have pics tonight or tommorow hopefully.

Here's the pic, i used a 45 degree elbow at the maf sensor right at the cold air box, but i trimmed it to fit maybe in the 25 degree area or so. I didn't relocate my maf like he did, i wet sanded the aluminum tube with 800 for the machined look and used the 90 degree rubber elbow at the throttle body. I bought 4 stainless steel clamps from airflow tech with the elbows and aluminum tube, and they're awsome clamps, and look great i think. I didn't cut down the coolant tube on the water pump, nor did i relocate it, i just pitched the intake downwards a lil and ran the coolant hose over the intake, not the prettiest ever, but it works fine and doesn't look super shitty. I just didn't have the tools and materials to find a way to re-route it nicely, someone may have alil more patience than me, and be able to re-route it under the intake better. I guess i got lazy. Honestly, i felt a lil off idle response increase ( obviously it's not gonna be huge ) and the shift 1-2 seemed to turn the tires a hair more, and feel a hair better, over my old UPD with K&N drop in filter. I'm very happy with the performance and the price. I'd reccomend to anyone who can fab stuff up. And thanks to my buddy ken for helpin me out.... ******!!!

my message above says that i noticed a lil off idle response, and the 1-2 shift turns the tires a lil more.... so yes, i'd say i noticed a seat of the pants gain. my cam sucks, so it looks better in person.
