Looks good.
How much for the K&N?
Pretty much the setup I changed to, except I have a dinky offbrand filter compared to that one.

K&N was about $50 from jegs P/N RE-0810

I didn't really make it I bought it from Kragen. Its the Spectre Modular Cold Air Intake

I used:
P/N 8771 - 3" coupler
P/N 8698 - 90*
P/N 8718 - 6" straight
P/N 8708 - 4" straight


If I was to do it again I'd use a 6" straight and a 45*

Thanks. Did you notice a difference in performance after it was installed?

Is your battery in the rear spare tire already? Did you reroute it yourself. I'd like to move mine there eventually. Any tips? How much battery cable. Where did you run it from/though/to? Thanks, Daniel U Nice intake BTW!

Batteries are usually on the driver side for 'birds.
The passenger side is where the factory airbox is located, unlike the 'maro setup.
