I like it, looks better then my SLP airbox. But I found out at test n tune the other night and driving the last few days I have lower IATs without the lid on then when it is on. Driving around It doesnt get over 2-6F ambiant where with the lid on it is usually 6-12F over.

That air we built has an opening in the front. That lines up with an opening in the chassis.
This thread has been a while. And I think was a very clean cool build.

Tell this next one.
we are looking for another customer that wants a custom build.

BUMP
I have a question, did yal have to reroute the a/c and heater lines to fit the turbo and with all the open space on the driver side why did you choose the passenger side to install the turbo?

ac lines stay intact. The heater hose get lengthen.
The drivers looks like there's alot of room over there. But you hace steering collum, brakes and PCM.
I thnk the look and overall flow of the is cleaner on the passenge side.

How would you relocate the ps cooler and tranny cooler to allow room for the intercooler on the 4x4 models?
