Ride: '97 EL XR6

Location: Cairns
QLD, Australia

Got mine delievered the other day and finally got it fitted. YEH!
It looks fantastic! I didn't have any problems as some have mentioned. The only struggle was just putting a wire loom clip on the bolt before I fitted the intake to the BBM.
A 3 inch intercooler hose and clamps from Autobarn ($15) to connect it to the throttle body was all I needed as well.
It might be my imagination but there is a little extra "growl" from the enigine when I drive too. Very nice :)

I'm a little confused about what EF owners are doing with the PCV hose that normally goes into the plastic manifold. Does it need to be rerouted?

I congratulate other EL owners who have been lucky and have 'fitted' their intakes with no problems.

I've had to make small adjustments everywhere to fit mine.

Well done to all who purchased and waited patiently for them.
