I might be wrong, I know the 97s had it in the back and mine seems to be different than the pics, but I can't tell for sure.

The original ATI kit got air from behind the radiator (it was the worse possible design). It was integrated into the fan shroud. Everyone who moved it to the front noticed a huge difference in charged air temps.
An open cone might not be as bad, but getting cool air from up front would be much better.

This is my ABS block(2002). My radiator is tilted back and lowered, so don't pay attention to that. I also have a line lock, which changes the lines slightly.

the down pipe goes down and splits into two 2 1/2 inch pipes and does connect to the stock locations.

Niece work guys, it looks like a bit of tight fit but then there isn’t much room in engine bay. With your projected prices you will have a strong seller.
As mentioned above the air inlet location may be a source of concern to some. Keep up the good work and looking forward to numbers.

the waste gate will come off at a 90 degree from the collector at the turbo and will feed right back in to the down pipe. we will have pictures of this next week.
