its the same size as the stock piping...just pretty. it can be cut though. all you can really do is, when the time comes for the install, test fit it. if it all wont fit; make it fit. do what you have to...

Also, What cutting/bending tools will need?
prob just a saw. its not to much cutting. i dont think any bending in req.

Looked at the Greddy installation booklet and find it hard to see what it is talking about at times, especially the shaded areas....getting worried
there not the best when it comes to instructions. from what i remember, the shaded areas are where you make your cuts. the booklet is more of a guide not for instruction(if that makes any sense). also, all the ones i've seen are in chinese..that doesnt really help much either.

if you can wait...i am doing the install sometime this may or june. while i do it, i can help you along. tell you what needs removed, wat tools i used, send you picts, give tips. i am not an expert, but i am pretty mechanicly inclined. and very familiar with everything i am removing. just let me know what you think...

That would be good 4CN AIR!

Is it totally essential to get a smaller battery??? Is there no chance that the IC piping will clear the stock battery??

i think i'm going to try to relocate mine to one of the storage bins, that way i avoid the hastle of trying to squeeze it in. greddy says it has to be relocated or a battery tray modification has to be done. i think its just turned so it sits horizontally.
