Maybe this newb can offer a little help. I created my own sri after seeing the outrageous prices for brands like weapon r. All I did was find a cheap midpipe off ebay that was 3", and cut it to the right length I needed. This is the midpipe link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/281055453059?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D281055453059%26_rdc%3D1
And here's the MAF adapter I used: http://www.ebay.com/itm/150809204468?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D150809204468%26_rdc%3D1
I simply pieced together my own custom sri and man does it scream.
Here's a picture.. (It's been cleaner lol Maine winters are tough) Hope this helps a little. And btw if you go with an Apexi filter (which I strongly recommend) don't forget the Apexi engineers are (choice word) and you have to buy an Apexi filter attachment..

Ive seen that ebay listing before when looking for an alternative, thought about it but never went for it, i guess it works might try it out.

Intake mid pipe

Cold air intake, it will not add any horsepower, just a a nice sound.
Better use the oem airbox with AFE dry air filter

I guess my dyno runs were lying about gaining power/torque?

The real thing with mine is that on the dyno mine supposibly made 8 whp, but on the track it loss power to the point of nearly bogging @ high rpm in 3rd gear....That Injen Intake was to damn long and restrictive!

Anyone with a 3.0 have pics of their setup? Because the 2 vacuum hose is throwing me off.
