Where did you get that little intake setup on your car. The one that bolts onto the throttle body with the K&N cone attached. I can't find anything like that anywhere. I want to run mine under the car so it will catch some cooler air.

I bought it used from someone.
It is a 4" piece of mandrel bent tube and its been smashed flat a little on the one end so that a piece of rubber will connect it to the throttle body.

I dont even know what part number the filter is, but it works.

Hope that helped ya some

Brian, if you want to go a possibly cheaper route, go to your local parts store and look at their industrial truck exhaust system book, it will have listings with sizes on it, look for a 90 degree bent one and get the measurements on it, then go measure your hood to see for clearance then look in the K&N catalog they should have for a conical filter with a 4" opening I designed mine for my TPI system using 3" radiator hose and 3" aluminized exhaust pipe, works great I used the hose to make the bends since no one could bend 3" tight enough. this may work or to just give you an idea on something.
