Default I did it....its not pretty, but i did it

I made an XB short ram intake fit and work on my XA... I put a rubber elbow on the end and then put the filter on...it fits pretty damn great, it works great, and it almost acts as a cold air intake, the only thing is it looks a little ghetto.....ill get pics soon...

Not Ghetto. It can not hurt the car, and it is time spent doing something you evidentally enjoy. It makes us DIT'ers proud to have another individual join the fold. Looking forward to pics.

good job, GotXa! I had to fiddle with my intake too, but mine's not a name brand so that's what i get, but i only paid like $90 for it, so that was expected.
