Got it Thursday but it looked like it was going to take awhile to install so i did it today. Stephen, thanks for the help. What took the longest is cutting my IAT sensor and making an extension. I think the intake looks great and its a tight fit. Its not as loud as my afe stage 2 from the inside but from the outside you can hear it sucking that air in like a jet plane LOL This is what came in the kit. Installed pics Where the filter is, no water is getting even near that area. Oh yeah i got some spy shots...enjoy

Boy that really gets the filter down and out of the engine compartment doesn't it! How hard is it going to be getting into replace or clean the filter?
Nice clean design!

Its pretty easy for me but it would be a lot easier if you jacked up the car. Thats what i should of done because its a tight fit to get the filter in there.

Sweet SP Intake! Awesome spy photos. Just the photos I needed. I've been asking to see pictures of the rear tire. I needed to know what kind of tires I needed to get for mine.

I like that a lot, I wish the MOPAR intakes were made that way.
On my wife's Neon (before we traded it for the Charger) I designed an intake that relocated the filter to the wheel well. I made a template out of some PVC pipe and had a local exhaust shop weld up some tubing to match. I sprayed it black, used some silicone hose from EVCO to connect the tubing together and wrapped it in header wrap. The difference in low end torque was incredible (especially for such a small car) and it sounded good to boot.
I've been thinking of making an extension for my MOPAR intake that puts the filter down in the wheel well.
