use the mid pipe off the PR CAI and use the MAF adapter along with the PR filter, thats all a short ram is. if you want to do what I did which is use the midpipe from the PR and add a pop charger to the end of it to make the most out of a short ram intake and sell the lower pipe of the CAI

Keep the upper part and slap the filter onto the end for a Frankencar-style intake.

I'm going CAI piping too. I've got the CAI piping on the way and I'll be running my HKS filter along with the STOCK RESONATOR I'll probably be the only one ever to run this type of setup.
