Any 5gen with V2 kit have pics of how air filter is setup?

I was wondering if there is any 5gen with V2 kit that have pics of how the filter is setup? Just want to get a idea since I need to find adapter and bracket to make my kit work. I check out stillen instruction but there is no pic that show where the air filter sits in the engine bay.

are you talking about a CAI setup? if so, the filter sits in the fender and u have to cut a hole. if u are talking about a filter right on the blower, you dont really need a bracket and adapter if you buy a filter with 3.5" flange.

Nope, he's talking about the intake pipe Stillen used on all 5th gen supercharger kits. It relocates the filter to about the same area the Injen CAI kit does. Here's an idea of what it looks like from the front:

Yes, it sits in the space behind the radiator, next to the left frame rail, in front of the transmission, below the battery, pointing towards the ground. I can't find any pics but it sits about the same spot as the Injen CAI I believe.

Yeah, Stillen had to re-work the piping set up so that the 5th gen MAF was on the uncharged side since it is a little more sensitive to boost than the 4th gen MAF.

I already upgraded my maf to the updated one so I'll be fine. Even though my stock one never gave me any problems.
