    You're very welcome! I actually "modified" the elbow that goes into the engine bay so that it would fit through the hole. I wanted the hose clamp in the engine bay as opposed to in the wheel well. That gave me fits. Overall, the template is pretty accurate, just drill 1 bolt hole at a time and check fit then do the next sort of thing. Overall, not a terrible job, but be cautious and check check check before doing anything haha.

    If you look at the "air ram" piece and the way it is slotted so that the plastic kinda "squeezes" together on the bottom, that's basically how I cut my elbow. I cut like 4 lines/slots in the plastic so that I could compress it to fit through the engine bay hole. Also gave me more room to get a tight squeeze on the air intake from the box so I feel like it seals better.

    I will see what I can get for you tonight. I was fidgeting with it so much that each time I cut I just went to fit it instead of pics. As soon as it fit through I clamped that sucker down haha. I'll do what I can for pics though.

    Edit: I'm not sure why they didn't design the elbows to go through the hole anyway...

    Sorry guys, I thought my overtime was going to hit on this latest paycheck... It did not. So you can remove me from the list unless you don't mind me sending payment in another two weeks when it does hit. Sorry!
