Well, I have pretty much worked on this for the better part of this morning. Only taking a few breaks now and again to check the boards. I think I have made a lot of progress, in the right direction, so here's where i am right now.
Recut length and I cut off what seems to be too much for mine, but it might just work out great for someone with an intake pipe such as from CTA or BAT. That way I can see how I need to adjust the overall length for these. As for mine, it measures out to about 11.25 - 11.5 inches from the back of the TB to the gasket between the MAF and MAF Adaptor. As for how to measure it, this is how I did mine...
I got everything measure out for bolt, located in the fender well, to secure the front part of the sheild. I do have problem with the ground wire running from the tranny case to the fender not being long enough, so I'm thinking i could go in two directions to correct this...
1) Cut a hole just large enough for the terminal to fit through and fill the hole with a rubber grommet thick enough seal the gap around the wire.
2) Relocate the ground wire.
#2 might be the most logical, but I'm just worried to if someone was to install this thing and not relocate this ground wire, they will blame me for their tranny going south on them within a year.
Here's, the area I am talking about...
That small black wire you see in there right now is not the wire I am talking about. That is the ground wire I have run for the LED's I have in my headlights.
Oh yeah, someone asked about covering up the intake hole located in the fender...
*Note* I don't know how long these images will stay up because I am linking to them from my free ripway account, which only allows 5 MB of transfer a day. The others are linked to my Cardomain site, but since last night I have not been able to given go to the Cardomain homepage without picking up some crazy Adware crap to total takes over my PC, so.... I wont be going back there anytime soon. I guess that's what I get for taking advantage of a good thing.
