Can we get a picture of the cast intake elbow installed in a car, with a filter on it?

Sorry for the stupid question but I didn’t see this info anywhere so I’ll ask! How is the cast aluminum intake fitted to the s/c, and how does it support the tube with the air filter?
I’m already a2a but I definitely want to upgrade to this! When do you think this will be ready for purchase?

Also congrats on this-I hate taking the s/c out to get to the filter!!!

Also removing the cans on the exhaust.

Dyno rescheduled for Thursday. Another week of waiting. Sorry guys. Pics for proof.

He was. Right now he has the TurboGuard/FilterWears setup. It can be removed for cleaning as often as necessary and filters out anything that could damage your engine. The problem the way other shops are doing it is that they are using a 3.5" turboguard that goes directly onto the supercharger. That is great if you want to only filter 1/2" rocks from entering the engine. Sand will suck in like a dyson. By placing a sand/dust guard like a filterwears on the 3.5" turboguard it restricts the blower to about 10psi.

My new design places a 6" turboguard over a velocity stack which allows a 6.5" filterwears to be used, creating twice the surface area of intake air.

KN intake makes roughly 12 psi.
This makes 14 psi.

The funny thing is that he had intentions all along to run E85 and we were going to grab those numbers but he said the car is so fast now that he doesnt think he even wants anymore power...Lol. He does/will track the car so he wants to see how/if he can handle the power. I told him he will be back for more..they always are..Lol.

Yes, I'm selling it but this would be a great add on for the new owner. Who ever buys my Z is getting a lot of extras too.

I love my Z and don't really want to sell it but I need the room.......

I'll still be haunting you guys at least for a while. I feel like I've made a bunch of good friends here.
