Looks really good! do you think it would be better spaced out a bit from the MAF? I've read a few threads that say bolting directly causes turbulence in the MAF housing and using a spacer will allow a straighter path of air.

Just a thought :)

Thanks for the comments, I thought about a spacer anyway to make it a bit more central behind the battery. Interesting theory about the turbulence though, I'll have a search.
