It took about two weeks or so to get here. It said it was taking forever then too.

Mine was shipped DHL from eautosource.
You get yours installed yet? (Turns out the rubbing i had was my passenger tire on the back side of the wheel well when the wheel is maxed and it's so minor it's hardly noticeable). -------------------- |

ebay is your best bet for gettin these intakes...35 shipped maybe?? i mean its really cheap..there no drilling holes for the maf and it works great..only thing you really have to do is cut the tube where the S bend is so that it will fit under the fuse box...noooo need to reloacte it what so ever..mine fit perfectly...mine also had the whole pre-drilled for the MAF....if anyone has any other questions or pictures just let me know and ill see what i can do...took me about 30 minutes to put it in

So isn't it kind of a pain to get the filter out and in to clean from that location?

I sent him an angry message the day before I got it like "seriously, I havent heard from you at all. Please send me a tracking number."
the next day i went to check the tracking number from work and it had been delivered. mine didnt have the air temp sensor hole predrilled. I still havent put it in even. Just got my bypass filter yesterday. Dont know if it's the right size though now that I look at it. Might be too small. I bought a 2.5" bypass valve for the 2.5" piping. Prolly shoulda gotten 2.75" The intake has been installed and I didnt notice a big difference at first but I def do now. Also, those couplers they sent with the piping suck. Tighten em up till your hand hurts from trying to turn the screws, then do it some more. And check back on em for at least a week. It sounded wierd when I revved the other day so I popped my hood and the intake had come unattached from the manifold. -------------------- |

mine finally came in yesterday, and its not quite like yours, its still 2.5", but its 2 pieces, its polished and the filter actually looks decent!. my only problem is the two connections on the "S" pipe...one of them is broken (the little one) i cant see any pics right now but do i need that connection anyway?

^do you need it?, i got two hose connections and the little one is broken, i think you only need one however.

You only need the one, the bigger one. It connects to the hose coming out of the side of your valve cover.

I couldn't find a hose coming out of my valve cover. I found a capped port on the back on the air intake manifold, but nothing on the side of the valve cover. I ended up throwing a breather on it and havent had any issues, but I'd like it to be correct. could you get a picture of exactly where the port is on the VC for my car-illiterate arse?

I don't have one because I installed mine on a GT, but you can somewhat see the hose in the second picture of the first post in this thread. Not sure where it's going to. You should have had a hose similar to what you are trying to install attached to your stock airbox.

I'd link you to the one I already posted on page 3 of this thread, but it appears imageshack is busy taking a dump. I can't get it to show any of my pics when I click on the links
