    Id be happy to.... just give me a week or so to get everything together (with my 2 jobs). Hell i'll go ahead and prep and paint my FWI for the Impala, that way I can take pics through-out the whole preping and painting process. Then ill leave it to Scotty and see if he wants to "Sticky" it or what-not lol. I used to powdercoat paint for a living. Its dirty but man its fun and rewarding when its done right!

    I have an 02 Grand Prix GTP 40th Anniversary.
    Would someone please recommend what kit I will need to do this. I want a K&N intake for it. I would perhaps like a housing or "box" for it, but I have two concearns regardin that:
    1. I cannot remove a headlight in order to put this in.
    2. Somebody told me it would be dangerous to have some of these boxs near all that heat.
    Anyone wanna weigh in?

    Make your own. DIY Fenderwell Intake blows the crap ass K&N out of the water. For the price you can almost get a set of headers for god sakes.

    1) Cobra's are hella easy to make power...intake placement or not

    2) No one buys a FWI for a Cobra...they all run OPEN CONE!!

    Despite what all the nay-sayers who can't afford the K&N are saying, it absolutely rocks. I was not comfortable putting some crappy PVC or plexiglass in a hot engine compartment.
    The K&N is an amazingly snug fit, designed very well. It really opens up that supercharger!
    Two things that surprised me:
    #1 It fits nicely against the hood of the car, sealing it off from warm engine air.
    #2 It is designed to draw directly from the AC unit air since the bottom is open and exposed seemingly only to the AC (touch it and you'll find out it's cold).
    The kit is professional, and if you can afford more than some Plumber's PVC junk, then I say go for it.
    Don't listen to the haters, I love it, and you won't regret it.
    Here's the video that convinced me: YouTube - Grand Prix GTP Whining Supercharger Flyby... among others! It rocks, just get it.
