considering that the stealth ram will not even clear the stock hood without modifiction, then, no it will not clear a tpi stb.

well if you are going to try to fabricate a stb, i dont think anyone can really give you dimensions. you would be better making it from scratch to fit your new hood. if you are not going to put a new hood on i think it might be very well impossible to make one.

to make one measure the hieght of the highest part on the hsr and then use a flat bar to clear that section. then use tubular piping to run to the strut tower and steal a design to bolt it to the strut tower.

a waste of $$ when you can just have a stock plenum milled down like JMATLOCK88 did.

matt yes is a monoblade TB.
