once I place my AFM in my intercooler pipe system I will take a pic..but I have no time so that will be a month from now..then I will run a long pipe from the tubo to the front so I get cold air..the AFM in the intercooler piping system should provide me with some benefit..at least it makes sence when you consider it

Travelintrevor: Is your lcd display exposed or is it retractable?

It seals somewhat, not a complete seal.....but good enough for making it in about 15 minutes.

i was thinking about putting an lcd in the glove compartment box. Going to drill on some sliders, so i can manually slide it out and flip it up. I have vert... dont want theives to steal
my display.

Air intake: Does adaqute air flow into the filter? Can i make an adapter myself for a k&n cone setup? Heat shield looks sweet.

Karmaweasel: Is that an ebay strut bar?

I used cardboard as a template to get the proper fitment and bends. Then I traced it onto some extra sheet metal that I had laying around the shop. Cut it out with a bandsaw and then bent it on the edge of the workbench. Then I used some extra vacuum/fuel lines that I had laying around and sealed the edges of the shield.
