Hell if you can weld like that, why not just build a completely custom IC? If you look at the stock IC, a lot of the scoop opening is wasted.. the opening is 12" tall, yet the IC is only 9".

If youve seen the ARC tmic up close, it uses all 12" of the opening (12" x 12" core i believe) and the tubes are positioned horizontal instead of vertical. end tanks are on the sides. that way the air doesnt have to take two extra 90 degree turns like the stock IC. im sure you can find a 12x12 core and fab something up? they would sell like hot cakes too
I thought about it. But i wanted to keep it stock appearing. At first i was only going to add a larger outlet on th top mount. But then i go a little carried away. I want to use all factory parts, just modified a bit for more power...
