Apexi Power Intakes and Greddy or PFS SMIC ?

I have Apexi Power Intakes with hardpipes and am thinking about replacing my stock IC with Greddy or PFS SMIC, but dont know if it will fit, with the primary filter being so close to the IC and radiator. Anyone has similar setup ?

Here's the current situation:

I don't think the greddy SMIC fits with that intake. It hits it. You may need to change the intake. Just sell it and buy something else. But the Greddy SMIC is great!

Or I may just put in a new pipe. God knows why it is bent that much. It could've been pointing forward like the secondary filter.

I have the Pettit CCII ('old' style) and it fits with the stock pipes and Apexi intake. I'm guessing that the Greddy one will fit also if you use the stock pipes.

I have the PFS and I had to re locate my worthless Apex-i intakes to fit. It will work though.

With that particular intake don’t you just end up sucking up a bunch of hot air?

If he's got a FMIC there's not any other option.. All intakes compatible with FMICs will suck 'hot air'.
