Originally Posted by wait4me All you maggy guys need to get a front snout inlet from a GTO for your front, and then use a 90mm throttlebody and then a Front duct assembly from the gto also, and then you just cut a little off it then use a 90mm straight piece of tube to go the rest of the way to the mass air meter. It will Make your engine run ALOT BETTER. But you also need to tear out all the plastic in the front near the headlights and cut a hole in the bottom metal under your filter. When you dyno a car, the hood is always up, so the motor gets alot more airflow that it needs. However, when you shut the hood, you are now only breathing thru about a VERY small hole on the side and front. It isnt enough to support your Hp level. EXPECIALLY at higher rpms. | Cut a hole below the filter? What is under there, just the wheel well? Is there anything to watch out for or can you go straight through it? I might do that.

Front Duct Assembly? Is this the same as the snout? Do you have Picutres of theses parts or mods? | Think the first part is the snout between the blower and TB. The part you connect the TB to.

I was impressed how they made everything fit and still make the install look so sanitary.
