Yes that is a short ram pulling hot air from the engine bay. The fwi puts the air filter in the fender pulling in cold air. fwi> short ram unless u are using alky/intercooled.
Would i need and clamps or brackets or anything how much did this cost you
my question is for vailskiier. I have an 08 with the MAF like yours. How did you go about getting a leeve to fit on the air box side of the MAF. Mine bolts into the air box.. is that how yours is too?
I have an 07 and the MAF bolts on the airbox too, it looks like he used the coupler from the original airbox.
Heres mine on an 07, needs a bit of cleaning up, but works great.
thats a 3in pipe... not 4 inch... stock is basically a 3in as wellQuote:

Thats what I was thinking, if there is a 3 inch bottleneck at the MAF and the throttle body, I did not see that it would make much difference.
Because some people actually have a set-up that allows 4" all the way through into the blower casing.
also my MAF is directly on my TB......so for me, the four inches allows for as much possible flow through the bends, angles and the air capacity that the IAT gauge sits........so you are getting a full three inches worth(or whatever max capacity is) into the TB......otherwise these things would not allow a true three inch pipes worth of flow into the TB.Quote:

Yeah, your going to have one hell of a time finding it too.Quote:

I'm just going to hold off on FWI until I have enough $ for a wiz intake.

You look at the TDC FWI yet? better look, and functionality for a better price in my opinion........it is your car though...Quote:
