I updated my picture on the first page to represent moreso what one of our cars should look like under the hood instead of missing an engine mount and insane wire routing.

wait...I thought our cars were supposed to be missing a mount and have crazy wiring...XD

my tube is going to be shorter then this one. ill find the pick of the other guy on here that showed me the sight that had it. I basically bought the same setup he had cause I really liked it. mines going to be a little cleaner thoughunbolt the bracket for the filter, bend it so you can spin the filter instead of the fitting if the fitting is seized on the line. Undo the quick disconnect side first.
Short ram like that.
I do 75 MPH because thats the fastest I can go without the cops bugging me around here.
You get the best fuel efficiency at 80 km/h or 50 mph.... But have fun doing that on a long trip and being passed like you're an idiot.

I ordered the same filter and rubber hose that he has. i think im going to put that little sensor on the back side so you can't see it so it is very clean. does that make sense. what do you think of that look......I wish my engine bay was that clean though. I also wish I had a shinny supercharger strapped to the top

XD, you should be fine, the only problem I can see you having is trying to get the IAT wire to reach back there, as it's not a very long wire to begin with. But I would kill to have my fuel rails like his, and that fuse box cover too
06-11-2010
ooooooooooooooo I know it looks so good. I think ill do it either way just so that it is just that much cleaner

Clean engine bays are for people who dont spend enough time driving their car
That should be fine. I take it you're going with a bigger filter then? Can't really see the whole length of it.
06-12-2010
Ya i think it is going to be a bigger filter I think I'm ok with that though. give me a min Ill post a link to specs.

I vote 4" ID but thats just me.
buy it from nick/01gtp, he should be able to get you good prices.
06-12-2010
ehhh I ordered it already. its half way here from cali.. i just want to get it I dont really care that I spent a couple extra bucks right now
06-14-2010
I got my pipe in. now I am just waiting on the filter.
how hard is it to take that throttle off to paint it black? I dont like the way it looks right now at all and I thought a nice glossy black might be nice. kinda like in the pic above
06-14-2010
three nuts, pretty easy. You'd need a new TB gasket though.
06-14-2010
could i get just the one gasket?
06-14-2010
you only need one gasket : \
06-14-2010
I know but when I replaced the upper plantum I replaced that gasket and it came in a kit of all of the gaskets. do you think that I could just buy that one
06-14-2010
yeah. not sure if your parts store can get it or if you'd have to go to the dealer. Check both out. Personally GM gaskets are worth the small extra cost.
06-14-2010
high temp paint or will it matter with that part?
06-15-2010
Engine enamel should be good.
