I got bored today and decided to make a CAI for the twins. It's all purge welded 316L Stainless. Now that the intake is out in front of the bumper, I can try out the Co2 spraybar I also madehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSI24qxCOsw while going down the track.

Thanks Guy's/Kat;)

"Very nice. I've been wanting to do something similar to that "
You know what city I live in, Im only 45min away;).

"Nice. Gonna run it without a filter huh Russ?"
At the track yes! There is a piece in the picture that connects it directly to the turbo via boot. If on the street (spool piece removed), it sit's 1/4" from the filter. The filter sit's kinda sidways when on, so air will be directed right into it.

:D I'll have to catch up with you one of these times at the track. I'd really like to see it in person

ought to run some kinda filter like an outerwear to keep small rocks or chunks of rubber from getting into your turbo.

5" could fit, but the plastic inner wheel well would be a lil tweeked. This one is 4", and moves the wheel well about 1/4", with a 1/4" gap between the tube/rad support. Horn and light wires were re routed as well. If I had exact dimensions/location of the turndown on your truck it could happen.
