^pipe is too long. You are better to just have some one custom make you a pipe for that. It will cost you less. I was going to have a shop do it for me but after another member wasnt happy with the FSport pipe I decided to try this route again.

passnu2, where did you get your intake? and what model year of the sc (300 or 400 or 430)? Thanks. I wanted the intake for some time now but not really sure what to get. This is great!

^Looking at the pics looks like you can make it work IMO. You will need to trim that bracket and may not be able to use it at all but it wont harm anything. Worst case if it doesnt work I am sure you can sell it easily on here to another member.

^^^ True, I am thinking it may work. Where did you buy yours? I am seeing prices of 215 - 250 any place cheaper?

Let us know when you get that video up

I got mine from another member since I wasnt sure it would work or not.

This is what I would do unless a vendor on here can take care of you??
