OSCAI installed.... but the AE Intake Scoop is different!
#1
I installed the OSCAI today. My version is the same as Paul2KGXE's (2.5 inch Shop Vac hose).
Some observations I had:
My AE intake scoop is different than the ones I've seen in OSCAI photos. It doesn't have the L tube or the resonator below the battery! The secondary hole underneath the scoop doesn't even exist; there was a "cap" molded there. I had to saw off the end so I could attach the hose.
Are other AE's just like this? Are I30's like this also? I'm wondering if that's one of the things Nissan did for the engine to make 227 HP.
Where have you guys routed the hose? Mine just goes towards the front left corner.

Yeah, the 2k1 models don't have the L-tube like the 2k models. No big deal. The 5 hp on the AE models is because of a slightly different exhaust. The hose on mine is down on the drivers side peeking through a small slit I cut in the splash guard.

Do you think you could put some screen to protect dirt and other particles entering the shop vac tube?? see that it is hanging down the splash guard (splash ,water, debris). i dont see why screen wont do the trick
