No problem. I wish I had checked your thread earlier, I would have posted it and maybe saved you a headache. Best of luck with the rears!

I need to make an intake for my NA car but I don't know which route is best.

Do you all think it wise to just turn my pass-side headlight into an airbox and have the turn signal hole become a ram air or would that hurt my aero too much?

After speaking with Zeus on the phone, I've decided to prep my car for NASA TTE. The header is just a cheapy eBay one until the 1.6 pops, then I'm going to scrounge up some VVT goodness.

Hmm, I might suggest getting that lower radiator hose away from the header. You can either shield it or rotate the housing 180*.
