running stock intake. i wouldnt mind having that intake if the price is good. give me a price. i was looking at the cobra intake, and the bbk ssi (i believe). i'm was more concerned into investing into a new vert top but looks like the intake will come first.

drove this morning to work. just fine. other than i could smell something not right. too dark to see any smoke but i believe it was there. going to see about taking the intake back off to see if any plugs are not secure.

is there enough room on the intake to make the 5/16th hole to 3/8"?

found the smoke problem and where that vacuum line with the ball type end is suppose to go. it was hard to see but finally found it. on the back of the lower intake (closest to the firewall) there is a line (that ball type ended vacuum line) that comes from the upper that wasnt connected. connected that (fit perfectly, go figure) and no more smoke and no more of that suction noise when the car is shutting off.
