    Got up early this morning to get it done .. FAIL........... it doesnt fit, the angle the pipe wont fit into the box too great an angle you cant get a pod into a airbox mold. The only way i can see it work is to mold around the pod and than make up brackets to mount it.

    I have not stopped/given up but im cashed out so this is on hold!

    In the bottom corner I think. You can see a 50mm hole. Is that for the OEM feed?

    OEM feed will be gone. I have had to ditch some of my orginal ideas as space or mold wouldnt work.
