    Yes that is a short ram pulling hot air from the engine bay. The fwi puts the air filter in the fender pulling in cold air. fwi> short ram unless u are using alky/intercooled.

    I have an 07 and the MAF bolts on the airbox too, it looks like he used the coupler from the original airbox.

    yes but why would you need a 4 inch pipe when the throttle body its going into is only 3 inches. and the MAF is only 3 inches. Doesnt make any sense

    Thats what I was thinking, if there is a 3 inch bottleneck at the MAF and the throttle body, I did not see that it would make much difference.

    Because some people actually have a set-up that allows 4" all the way through into the blower casing.

    also my MAF is directly on my TB......so for me, the four inches allows for as much possible flow through the bends, angles and the air capacity that the IAT gauge sits........so you are getting a full three inches worth(or whatever max capacity is) into the TB......otherwise these things would not allow a true three inch pipes worth of flow into the TB.

    Yeah, your going to have one hell of a time finding it too.

    I can probably get you one, or you can order one off line though.

    You look at the TDC FWI yet? better look, and functionality for a better price in my opinion........it is your car though...

    Why buy TDC, when you can make one for a fraction of the cost?
