    you need 2 couplers, and put that air line into one coupler. so TB, coupler, maf tube coupler to elbow, to air filter.

    ive seen the 04 cars with the air filter right on the end of the maf tube too.

    I think I have everything I need now. Went to Advanced Autoparts and Lowes today.

    While I have the mod gurus, what would be the next mod be that I would want to do? Something easy and fairly cheap. 180 Tstat?

    How about the exhaust? How difficult is the front manifold to replace?

    leave the t stat alone. headers would be next. or plog and DP, then you could pulley down some and tune it.

    Changing the TStat is useless unless you are tuned.

    I pulled the air filter box out, so now what do you do with the unit that sat in the bottom of it?

    Thanks. For now it's zip tied, but hopefully I can come up with something that looks a little better.

    Just curious....Do you have any kind of support for your custom CAI setup? It just kind of flops around in there a little, so I used some wire to somewhat tie it to the black bar.

    Also, are there any concerns if the PCM gets wet?

    I tightened my hose clamps enough to where it can barely move just hanging there. Pretty surprised it doesn't sag.
