hmm, that CF cover looks to be covering the stock air hole. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the new intake?

No.
what it does is it seals the opening from the front of the nose and all around the inside of the bumper, forcing all the air that comes in to stay "pressurized" some what, and it forces the air into that little hole thru the cross beam and into the pop charger....

Hey extreem Z. The engine looks great. I decided to go with the short injen set up like you, but I am looking for a heat shield like you installed. Any idea of where i can purchase one?

Thanks for your help.

Nick
