Got around to fixing my VC's and added a CAI

My son is down for spring break and he is always looking for a project we can work on. So I ordered some VC gaskets, spark plugs and an air filter.

The VC gaskets were fairly straight forward and the CAI required a little creativity. I picked up a universal MAF adapter and 3" inlet filter from the local parts store. I also grabbed the only can of VHT wrinkle red they had. Two different part stores claimed wrinkle red didn't exist!

I think when he comes back this summer we are going to do a 5MT swap. We will see.

Re: Got around to fixing my VC's and added a CAI

Hey! Did anyone ever tell you that your left front wheel is on backwards?

Aside from that looks like you are making progress. Did you just let the intake filter hang in the fenderwell. If so, did you make any changes to allow servicing of the filter?

Re: Got around to fixing my VC's and added a CAI

All my wheels are on backwards (been that way since I bought it)... I only heard that on here one gazillion times. Its a mod I tell ya!

I fabbed up a bracket to attach to the factory mounting point for the resonator box. Pretty simple L bracket. As for servicing, it will require the removal of the RF wheel and liner.
