Oh........and another thing!

Will someone please tell me how to build a good intake system, or which one I should buy for a 2.8 MPFI?

I just used 3" and 1 90, to the right, another 45, to get above air box, another 90, to go through the hole that is now where the airbox panel used to be. It is then connected to the top of the original air box, and the screw goes to the bottom, but the rest(center section) is no longer with it. Boo hoo. bring on the COLD AIR.

Depends; you got a 2.8 MPFI Firebird or Camaro? The intakes are different, and so are the options...

Nope, no pictures yet, I've mentioned making a webpage millions of times before but it's yet to happen, and definately won't be happening in the near future- too much crap to do for work & school. But for the camaro, check out the technical area under thirdgen.org's main web page, and look up the do-it-yourself ram air for TPI v8. (You use the same intake as a v8 TPI does.)
