Custom CAI Install

Hello,
Well I just wanted to post my new CAI setup. Here are my specs:

I have a 3" tubing with 3 90deg. Elbows and 1 4 in to 3 in hump hose. I used a K&N Fileter Part Number: RC-2530. The motor run alot better with more air and lots of cool air, now its time for another dyno.

It was pretty easy, I got all my supplies from a place called air flow, here is the link http://www.airflo.com/ and I got the K&N from a place called AJ USA here is their link http://www.ajusa.com/cgi-bin/store/start?r=store&

My main problem was finding the correct K&N Filter, I used a few formulas online to determine how much CFM I needed and used some other formulas to determine how much CFM the K&N Filters can handle. I dont want to open a can of worms, but some people say you must have a 3 1/2" pipe to intake (350 and up), but I believe 3" is just find for my 383.
