Custom intake

Finished my custom intake. Will be taking it to a shop soon to get it welded together. I bought a maf sensor pipe off of Amazon for $31, then a universal turbo kit for $115. Spectre filter for $15. I had extra hose clamps that I used because the ones that come with the turbo kit are bulky, I used a couple around the maf since it was in the open. I also took off the battery/ tray to make it easier.

No, driven over 100 miles so far no issues.
getting about 24mpg on the freeway, feels like I have less turbo lag.

I moved a couple pipes around to my liking will update pictures soon, maf still in the same place. I just moved the rubber elbow from where it goes to the body/ fog light housing by the battery to the last turn after the maf sensor.
I switched the pipes/ hose piping is all I did. I have to cut the piece because the elbow is now in the way for the intercooler cover.
like I said will post pictures. Both ways work I'm just trying to see how I like the setup

As you can see I swapped the first and last piece.
I like this setup more then my first, definitely feels less lag when I give it gas.
