Congratulations on your install. Get a full 3 exhaust and an ECU flash or XEDE and you'll be very very happy.

Do you have an MBC? It would have been in the same area where you installed the piping. 2 birds with 1 stone!

Looks good! Now flip the filter so the seam on the filter element doesn't show.

Did you have a hard time getting the silicone coupler sleeve to fit over the MAF opening? Thats the part of the install that took me the most time.
