And we end up with something like this. Each of those pieces has about 2 inch separate piece of tubing attached on the top that we will see in the next picture. This is in order to link some pieces together.

Now, these are the pieces involves. The mini-bullhorns now chopped up. Next to them are two pieces I spoke about in the last post. I had to chop them down to about 2 inches in length. Then some angled pieces chopped in half. Then the piece that was part of the original design...on top of it is the angled piece that was the first in this part of the thread and I had to attach it with some duct tape and a piece similar to those 2 inch pieces by the mini-bullhorn.

When put together, it looks like this.

Now when you compare it with the original piece, you get the idea.

This is looking up into the area I like to call the resonator bay (since this is where the air resonator used to be).

Now in the last picture, I used plastic ties attached to the piece that used to hold the resonator in order keep it secure...that may have been evident from the first few pictures showing some plastic ties.

This photo shows those little minibullhorns from behind.

This is the front before I put it in.

Now, I did test it out. Fastest at night it did was 18.211 with temperatures in the 60s...that's ok for this time of year. I would have liked it to get into 18.1s at least, but November, December, January and February are usually when the fastest times come in as many of you have noticed in the 17.939 video shown here taken in late November, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKjREZMauNA

Our track scoreboard wasn't working on Saturday night, so the videos would have been for nothing.

However, I decided to test it on Sunday just once, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcoHBtEfr3k and hit an 18.5 and this is normal for daytime around this time of year, though perhaps without the people (available oxygen in the air) it would have gotten down to an 18.3 as I got a few weeks back running it before we opened the track.

However, one thing that my father and I did notice with this modification was an impressive number of P0171 lean errors. I had about 3 at the track on Saturday night, 1 right at the end of the video above, and about 2 on the highway. I'll take it. Running lean at 7,000 feet is fine with me.

Now, I am going to probably do a slight upper air intake modification next Saturday, but one thing I probably want to get around to doing, especially to help the air intake, is start the y-pipe after the cat converter by using the Arvin muffler on the rear in place of that fat round resonator and then I am still debating on a APC or Magnaflow muffler. I thought about doing it this past Saturday, but I want to test this system out a bit to see any other abnormalities.
