Knowing our underhood geometry intimately well, I can tell you that the one in the picture will not fit the GT. It must be different from the one in the picture. Both the shroud and bend will not work.

I am guessing your going to use the elbow for either a paxton style supercharger or a turbocharger setup. It looks like a great idea actualy. Get a chepo paxton and run low boost. 350-400rwhp should be attainable for under 1500bux, and possibly a caned tune.
Contact these guys, they might be able to help you out. Tell them its for a larger order or something. http://www.blueovalindustries.com/pr...p?pid=99013167

A buddy of mine bught one, CHEAP, sheet metal wrapped in crome tape. he returned it imediatly. seller told him it was a proto type and the real crome plated ones would be out in about a year. Ebay is loaded with these so i doubit its a proto type - just plan CHEAP. you get what you pay for.

"You get what you pay for" rings as true now as it did when it was first uttered.

Avoid the CAIs on eBay unless it is a private seller and the CAI is a name brand one.
Not a cheap, non-weldable, cast pot aluminum, no name, made in china, CAI.
