Think about it,if you go over it,then the pipe would be stick up to high at the other end for it to make the turn to go under the headlight..

Ok,now you are now talking about major modifications(i.e. battery relocation) just to put in a cai pipe in? Be reminded that a cai has little to no performance benefit at all on these cars,so this would imo be waaay to much work for little to no gains...

K what about the bends? Does this really do anthing. I'm sure the heat from the block and the tranny take a little power but its probably nominal. Also, I got another question: I was thinking of doing a Throttle body coolant bypass Mod but I confused myself. Are the two rubber hoses coming out to the left and right of the Intake manifold supposed to have anything flowing though them. I heated my car up for like 20 minutes and left them disconnected and nothign happened. What r they for??

You probably disconnected the pcv/emissions system hoses..
These right?
The tb coolant lines are under the tb butterfly housing..
BTW..Where is madison,TN? I'm not finding it on google maps. (i live in crossville)

Madison is a suburb about 15 minutes North of nashville. Does ur car get pretty hot pretty fast?? My Intake manifold is hotter than the red thing below it. It seems like recently, even on cool summer nights it heats up way to fast, so I don't see how a CAI could help me because its SOOO HOTT everywhere else. Have you tried the throttle body collant bypass?

It's quite normal for metal engine parts to heat up to the point that they will burn your hand,i personally try not to touch my engine when it's hot.
My vg is bone stock,no mods at all,I did however do the t/b coolant bypass on my ve,but i didn't notice any gains from it.(butt dyno)

You will need a maf adapter(don't know if your kit came with one)
You will need a hole saw to cut a hole in the fender well for the pipe to go through...
Pm if you have any trouble.
