You need to go all the way across the width of the RA intake.

You will find it easier to remove the plastic part to do it.

Fitting some black mesh finishes the look of too. I personally like to keep my car looking stock.

hmm yeah I saw the plastic underneath and decided to stop there. I didnt have any mesh so I left it as is. But when I get a chance to pick some up I'll make the finish look better. Still need to clean up the edges and stuff anyway.

Hoges: I was working on Thursday and my mate offered to install both.

Yea find the quick shift is real responsive the changers are great! The Injen CAI has the best response so far as well car sounds meaner too!

Today I remove my throttle body off my car. I measured it all up and the inlet manifold.

I then stripped the throttle body down ready for machining to fit a larger butterfly. It is 57mm at the moment and I will machine it out to 61 mm to give me hopefully a little more top end power.

I also fitted dynamat on all the door and the boot trunk.

The car feels a little more solid but i can not drive it until the throttle body is complete.

Then it is off to the dyno to see the results.
