Injen Air Intake
Okay so I have an injen air intake and I keep hearing it was a bad choice.
What are my options for fixing it. Could I take out the long down pipe and switch the air flow sensor with the short pipe and put the filter on the end of the short pipe?
Or should I do the battery relocation?

I'm looking for how I can re-arrange the intake I have to make it better. Could I add a popcharger to the current piping or what?
Sorry for asking so many questions, I'm a computer guy and no nothing about cars. I really appreciate your feedback!

You can also think about doing the ghetto air box (GAB)

There's a really good write-up on the org somewhere about the battery relocation. That would seem like a fun project. But if not, just try to make a short ram. Remember, the main reason of having an intake is for sound. I have a random aluminum pipe short ram with some couplers holding stuff together and it sounds and looks great.

You can use the existing material from the Injen intake and stock intake parts to make a short ram. Basically, all you need from the Injen intake is the filter, filter adapter. The stock intake parts include that flexible rubber piece, the MAF of course, and the MAF gasket.
The only thing that might be an issue is the air temp sensor. What I did was make a hole in my intake filter (rubber side at the base) and plugged my air temp sensor there. It works just fine.

What order would the pieces go in? Also, for the filter could I use a pop charger?

Use the same filter you have. I'll take a picture of my setup and post it here today. I'm working so I'll have to do this when I head out at lunch to run some errands. Check back in a few hours for the picture of my setup.

To extend hoses just buy new ones, go get some nice automotive hoses and they come in all different colors if you wanted to dress up a bit.
Best intake = TB --> MAF --> nice straight mid-pipe --> velocity stack --> 6" filter
BTW, for those that don't feel like paying retard prices for a JWT or Stillen intake, you can buy a nice aluminum velocity stack and filter separately for WAY less.
