I know there was a thread where someone made a better flowing Y part that comes off the air filters. My question is how critical is it to improve the air flow of this piece? Is it worth custom fabricating a new piece that is a little larger to get more air into the engine? What would be the best way to go about doing this? Make a top and bottom piece and try to bond the two parts together, or make one solid thing and try to break the mold (foam?) out?

Any ideas/comments are appreciated,
Mike

PS - School is out for the summer and I haven't been getting enough hours from my 3 jobs to keep me busy so I figured this would be a good project.

I heated mine and bent it with a screwdriver, looks like hammered hell but it seemed to help. When I do the battery relocation I plan to run a CAI setup I made out of parts from a plumbing supply store to see if that picks it up any.
