Lightbulb Randy, I Think?

Bill - I recall that prototype about a year ago. Wasn't it Randy (Randys_G ) down in Dallas ( well, he was in Cali back then )?

Yes Injen made one for Randy but I guess they dropped it. I wanted one so I just bought the pipe and cut it and had it welded. The hardest part was the part for the MAF sensor. That took me about two hours to make. If you want Ill dig up the links from where I got the pipe.

Heres the pipe I bought

As for the MAF sensor I bought a piece of Aluminum 1/4 thick two in wide and made the plate. I sanded down the welds and polished the pipe out.

So you used the [ 2 ] 45 degree pipes for the two bends and a straight pipe with the plate for the MAF sensor welded into it ..looks great...thanks

Injen made it for Randy a while ago when he was having tons of issues with his SES exhaust ... he never got enough interest on it and I guess Injen pulled the plug on the project.

contact him for detaisl
