Here,s My custom setup, Purchased the hoses and all from intakehoses.com for under 100.00 minus filter! This is a Easy install!! remove rad overflow, i purchased a plastic red quart tank off ebay!! and cut a small piece of aluminium sheet to make up for the space when removing the overflow tank on the inner fender!! Now ive seen similar installs on ls1 and ls2 I even removed the fog lamps and cut custom screens from stock gto grills to match my sap front and grills!! I did lower the maf sensor for a cleaner look and less fittings than the stock one, they have for sale!! Look at hardcoreintake.com for a setup and photo's!!! Ya Gotta Love these GTO's!! its a great car!!

Very nice job on the install, looks like the parts you used were designed just for that purpose. I do know of 2 people that have a simular set up. Their only complaint is that the filter gets very dirty fast and they have to remove it weekly for a cleaning, Either way, you did a great job with it
My filter has stayed Very clean!! I did install a aluminium sheet to replace part of the inner fender in front of the drivers side wheel!! Whwn you remove the overflow, it has a small contour to match the inner fender that you must replace or your filter can be hit by all the debri from the rotating tire!! Sprayed black and a good tight seal my filter is in own recess and high enough to block any dirt!!even above the fog lamp with most of the filter!!
which 90 did you use on the throttle body, the quick 90 or the regular 90?and is it the 4 inch id that fits the throttle body?
Okay found the original intakehoses.com invoice!!Items as follows. 90hl4sr(4"x90 degree short radius) aluminium tubing 36' long (dont need that much 28" is plenty?)tb425 t-bolt clamp(4) Grommet strip(1) I trimmed the corners down to shorten the straight part of the rubber to remove Xcess! And i beleive i used the stock Factory rubber mount/tubing for the maf sensor. I also used the 1"+ pieces that I removed from the corners to act as a rubber stop on both sides of the Down tube, when it goes through the steel fender. It removes the vibrations & cushions the tube! on Vertical movement! Hope that helps. If any one would like More photos/ please Pm me and i will go out to the storage and take more photos!! Good Luck Sale no 3454. 5/16/2007. total-$85.97 with shipping. More than reasonable!! with a little custom work and thinking its a great setup!! some of the items will be used from the stock air box/ maf sensor! Rubber grommet/clamps
