HI I'm currently planning with Dennis to replace the standard air hose that is used to connect the K&N/MAF to the Supercharger inlet....
I also intend to do a battery relocation as part of this change...
hence the air filter will no longer be in the lower front bumper but in the general area of the battery....

the standard corregated tubing will now be replaced...
this is what it looks like... it's an obvious air restriction.....

A new solution is currently in the works and i will post pictures once possible....

looks really nice Dennis.
Hows the battery relocation kit for the K&N coming....?
The Vortec is on it's way to become a TQ-trim as we type....

Zack informed me that the new inlet of the vortec will be 3.75" so a 4"inner diameter hose will be needed... will the battery/K&N relocation kit come with different hose size option to accomedate all?
or will that be a person by person basis...?
