Booger,

1-3/4 Dia hose x 4-1/2 in Long
1-3/4 Dia muffler tubing x 2 in Long (reshape to oval)
Air Filter from Vortech

Facing toward the motor keeps it out of the wheel well and you don't need to cut the plastic

here is the downshot of the G...

maybe it is do-able then....

so, did you put any deadening material inside the filter ( see HERE for what i mean)..

if not, it can be made even quieter, and still allow for full operation...

Hey Scott...I think using a radiator hose [bendable] the Vortech filter will work with out turning the BOV around , and it would put the filter resting on top of the bar

go for it Bill.....

i guess if it flexes, it'll clear. just make sure it can withstand alot of heat (and not collapse/bend too much as a result...)

also, dont forget the pieces of foam, if you wanna go supa-stealth!! :^)
