The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

I'm having trouble seeing exactly what you did, Longshot, other than kind of "clean up" the appearance of things. I honestly don't see how the part you bought was adapted to your design. (Maybe I'm losing it!)

Anyway, the result is certainly pretty. No "drone" with the resonator cut off?

The part I bought was a stock 2006 intake. I took the peice that bends in almost a 90 (the middle plastic peice) and cut the intake tube out of the resonator. In that model the resonator wraps around the intake tube. They are actually two separate pieces, intake pipe on the inside, resonator peice on the outside. I merely discarded the outter layer.

Thank you, now I finally understand!

But I think if I really want peak power I'll change back to the stock intake. The diameter is a bit larger.
