I dunno if Im just dumb but when I tried that it was too long with a 9" filter.
Between the 22.5* pipe I got, the 2 couplers to go from 3-4" then 4-3", and the MAF, the whole thing wouldnt fit in there, I couldnt wiggle it onto the throttle body any way I tried, and I tried for a good 20 minutes before I just slapped the accordian tubing back on and put the maf and filter on that.
Also, Bkind, if you have trouble, shoot me a msg and I'll get you some pictures of what I did with mine, cause I had some issues to work around with my 08
