    measured 2.5 mpg increase, better throttle response, increased noise (not neccesarily a bad thing)

    Did you buy a universal pipe and filter? That kinda looks like the one I bought for my old acura legend I used to have. At any rate, looks great. Has anyone tried one of those universal kits from pep boys? The one I had only cost like 40 bucks and worked great.

    The cone is from Spectre, the pipe is a 45* bend polished aluminum 4" diameter IIRC piece from Polished Aluminum Tubing BoostController.com (where I originally got tubing to make custom fork covers for my bike), and the connector is a rubber plumbing coupler with a stainless steel cover and worm drive clamps from Home Depot.

    Pairs, that is an AWESOME looking intake setup you have put together there... I have an 06 GT 3800 series III supercharged and I am hoping that the setup shown here will fit on my car. Any differences you know of ? Again, really a clean looking setup!

    Pairs, this is surely one of the cleanest intake setups Ive seen on this thread!! :-) I see that it is on an 02 GTP. I would like to order the same parts for my 06 Series III but am wondering what I will have to do with the MAF that currently resides
    just behind the factory airbox Any ideas??

    check out the link in my signature to my member right, I've got a 05 Gt and i made my own intake reusing the maf. pretty straight forward.
