My latest mod
Cut my shifter today at lunch time then after work I added this.
I know it's dirty under the hood. I'll clean it tonight.

I thought about using this system but went with a K&N and the "zip-tie" mod. I am cheap..Looks nice though.

Look at you man! Wrenching on your car is fun especially when you can see results like this.
Looks good.

I like it! What kit is that? Any noticeable power increase?

I didn't go with the cheap one off fleabay. I spent a little more as the quality looked better in the welds and the air filters. It has the spout for the air pump hose, not just a hole like the $30.00 ones.
I don't take it to the track so I can't say it performs better but anything has to be better than the stock airbox. Plus I really like the way it looks. Sounds cool too.
Came with a bottle of K&N spray for the filters and a hood seal.
I'm happy.

might want to melt out the foglight plastic housings to get some air up there.
you could also cut holes in the radiator shroud under the filters to get fresh air into them and not block off where they are laying down.

Holes in foglight housings done saturday in anticipation of the intakes arrival. May or may not do the shroud.
