Cold Air Intake

Last week I had a cold air intake fabricated for my 88 gxl.... just wondering if I am the only person on the forums with a COLD air intake :P I have a couple pics too, if anyone wants to see them I wouldn't mind showing them if someone wants to host my pics. (Cold air intake fabricated by rx7doctor)

I wouldn't mind pics of your setup too.

Here's a few more with different angles of it, somewhat newer pics of my engine bay but still outdated.

3" pipe. I just used a 92-96 Honda Prelude cold air intake kit off of ebay and cut it up as I needed.

Didn't use anything to prop it, the piping/couplers hold it up on their own.
