took awhile trying to figure out how everything goes. The gap you see is normal, I thought there wasnt suppose to be a gap thats why it took so long in the beginning.

 

Man, that is a nice intake........i was going to go with the Apexi system, but i got a good deal on the injen intake w/upper IC piping, so i couldn't turn it down. Looks like a real clean setup. How much louder is the turbo spool now?

 

its pretty loud.. noticeably louder than before but I like it.

 

is there any way cold air can get into it?

 

It may look like a complete box but it isnt. Theres only 2 panels, one on the side and on top. Dont really know if cold air gets in there but my filter is sucking alot more air than the stock one AFAIK

 

I have that gap in my intake apexi box too..

 

yea I asked the same question to you remember? you told me you didnt know why... lol

now I know why...

 

Looks good. You should spray some black engine paint where they bored a hole in your heatshield for your EGT sensor to keep the heatshield from rusting

 

I have an Apexi filter kit that I haven't installed yet, the box looks great. That's on the "to buy" list for sure!

 

The manifold is all rusted anyways so might as well leave it alone. Going to save up for a turbo in the future so ill just let it be

 

looks good

 

cool

 

do you need the smaller barrery to run this intake

 

I dont think so because I am using the stock battery tray and its not touching the aluminum box.

 

nice!
