I think I get what you're trying for.

1. Search for pics. A good place would be Cardomain, keyword 3rd gen Maxima.
2. The "butt dyno" concluded a gain in power, throttle response, and a killer deep throat sound. Which takes us to the second part. If you drive the car NORMALLY then you will likely see no difference in fuel economy with an intake alone. However, typical response of drivers with intakes is to rev the engine, floor the gas taking off, and push redline accelerating. The result is poor gas mileage due to ignorance and immaturity.
3. Not sure if your car or intake was stolen or if you're looking for the theif on the forum by having people post pics. J/K

no my car was stripped of all its speakers, amps, the intake and the mass air flow were both ripped out also. i had it rigged up and it had a vacuum leak at the idle air control valve and before i could fix it it was stolen. im asking for pics because i want a better idea of how to mount one. can i leave the stock airbox in there and just put a cone at the end?
