^ I actually find it cool...it's different than anything else out there and keeps everything nice and open...hey there's an ass for every seat

 

 

no pics but I did manage to get it installed tonight...it looks great and I'll def shoot pics over the weekend

as for the fit, I had to angle the silicone coupler on the throttle body just a little so the intake would pitch in a little more towards the motor instead of towards the radiator...after I did that it fit a lot better...I was beginning to think that I was going to have to deal w/some rubbing...thank God

then I mounted my Spoon strut bar which barely made it...but it's all in...a little velcro on the intake tube just to protect from any friction and she's all set

now I'm gonna be looking at a polished aluminum cross member cover to cap it off...just perfect

 

Nice! Yesterday I installed a polished crossmember cover from Ebay. Cost me like $48 shipped. Its not all mirror polished like it shows in the pics, its more of a polished aluminum or dull chrome look. I know you could get it to shine if you sanded it and polished, but I was to lazy haha. I also put on an ebay strut bar with mine and it barely made it too.

 

I'd like to see a pic of the PRM with the cover....

 

I'll get some pics tonight after work. Yesterday I installed the crossmember cover, strut bar, carbon spark plug cover, painted my valve cover black sand pearl, also painted the fuel rail cover, and the ends of my strut bar. Right now i'm waiting on my polished/black Mugen oil cap, and my APR carbon cooling panel.

 

that semi polish look may be just what I need...my AB Speed catch can ist's fully polished either according to Moddiction so that should work great...I just hate dropping 50 bucks on just a simple piece of aluminum ya know...but it would make the engine back look a lot cleaner cause the inside of the cross member can get pretty dingy at times....can't wait for pics of that bad boy

 

Yeah I originally wanted a carbon cover, but they go for $150 plus shipping just for that little peice. So when I saw the $50 shipped for the polished one, I was happy to save $100+ just for that. It does its job well, and thats all I needed.

Yeah I think it would look good with the Moddicition catch can. I want one, but I just didnt want to spend that much just on a small aluminum tank. I'll probably end up just buying one soon though.

 

I am havin a tough time choosing which intake to go with

PRM, FIPK, PRM, FIPK sigh

Wish i could see some back to back performance stats although it probably wouldn't make a difference like you say... Wouldn't the PRM have more heat soak?

 

yeah I hear ya...I got the catch can/radiator overflow tank for Christmas...it's a pretty penny but man does it look good taking up the front driver's side corner phewwwww...just a well built piece...get it, get it, get it!!!! lol
