For sure. I will have to figure out how to use my parent's digital video camera but I will do my best to have a video of what I did and what it sounds like.

I also took that gay looking purple line and I am going to route it behind the block in a black hose and ziptie it to the feed line and other vacuum hose to make it cleaner. The purple one just looked goofy and rerouting it will cause the line to be at least a foot shorter, which will be better for boost response.

Hey you probably have room to stick a motorcycle cone filter on the inlet.

They make motorcycle filters with 2.75" inlets?

I was planning on taking it into work and piecing together some piping out of old turbo shit we have lying around. If I can pipe it upwards, I would love to stick a low profile "cone" filter behind the headlight. This way I will be getting cool air from the headlight instead of hot air from the radiator and it will place the filter higher up, so ingesting foreign objects and water will be much more difficult.

The 2.75 inlet from a motorcycle filter will be for a larger bike like a harley or maybe even a Goldwing. I don't think you will find a cone filter for a crotch rocket, but I could be wrong. You see more drop ins with those.

I know somebody who rides bikes regularly and at the track, I'll ask.

It runs. It fired up first try with the new injectors and Neptune basemap. :yay:

With the open downpipe, it sounds and smells like an old muscle car. I made a video but I am retarded when it comes to video cameras, so I need to figure out how to get it from the camera onto the computer.

Cool beans. It's Alive!!!!

I found this for you. Check out all the filters w/2.75 inlets. I'm sure one has to fit.

It is just an example. I saw a shitload they may fit your app.
