Looks similar to mine Albeit much cleaner. I still need to tuck my wiring harness.



Infernosg: do you have any links for the stack's you're using? I've been trying to find ones that would accept those types of filters with no luck. I've been running open stacks for a year lol.

It's cleaner because I don't have any of the harnesses installed When it's all said and done it won't be much of a tuck.

I'm using the trumpets that came with the EFI Hardware Kit. I have their 55 mm throttle bodies and though I don't recall the length but their stuff can be found here: https://www.efihardware.com/ My air filters are custom K&N units based on one of their off-the-shelf offerings. I think I still have the original filter somewhere in the garage. My modification was to make them shorter so they didn't interfere with the oil filler neck otherwise they're as K&N designed them. I suggest checking out K&N's site. Don't limit yourself to car filters because I think mine were originally intended for a motorcycle application.

I like your setup though! I should have done what you did and utilized an existing carb manifold. What throttle bodies are you using? I went with 55 mm units based on the recommendation of Logan from Defined Autoworks since I have their port templates. The only way to get something that big was to use an IDA-style since all the DCOE-style units were 50 mm or less.

Holy large picture! Sorry folks, I thought I resized that! :/

Lol. I plan on drilling a hole in the transmission tunnel so I can tuck my ECU harness and 02 sensor wires. I've already tucked the other side of the bay under the fender (I had to extend 40+wires, great fun). Since I haven't relocated my battery, I chose to leave the main power harness alone for now.

Thanks! I'm using a racehead.au 48mm throttle body kit. The stacks are 80mm at the opening and taper to 48mm. Since I'm stock port for now, I figured this would do. Eventually, I will PP or large street port. With long enough intake runners and stacks, I don't think flow will be too much of an issue. If it is, I'll just slap a turbo on and build a plenum or throttle body adapter for it.

As for the filters, I'm still on the fence. My stacks are spun aluminum so they are pretty flimsy and I don't feel comfortable clamping filters on them. I may pick up some Techno Toy Tuning 100mm length stacks and try to clamp some filters on.

(Front spec) +35 From (D-max style front fenders) No spacers


(Rear spec) Rolled stock metal, I have lowered it and it will work out quite well with pretty much perfect tucked fitment on thick lips.



I had lowered it another 1/2 inch but, the parking lot tells you why I raised it back up for rubbing.


Current update



Completely scrapped out the bottoms of side skirts, nothing for support now
16x8+0 and 18x9+38

cv cruiser, did you cut out the inner rear fender before you rolled it? or did you just hit it with a roller with the two layers of metal on the rear fender? the pull/roll in the rear fender looks perfect

Mine is the coupe. Kind of an older picture.. I pulled the dip off the wheels a while ago and it's got proper s4 aero mirrors now.

Just rolled 91,000 miles, much elbow grease and a slow and methodical parts hunt and she'll be cleaner and cleaner as time goes on. Anyone have a good source for touchup paint? Tornado Silver Metallic (K8) specifically.
