Saw BigMike's CLK at a local meet today - it's SICK. Dumped to the dirt, and the chromed wheels look great - saw it rolling and he's def. got the stance perfect. Cold air intake is really well done. Sweet ride.

Looks good, but you need to replace those single layer blue intake couplers with a turbo grade 3-ply versions, they will not bend & collapse like those (which is probably causing MAF readings to be off a bit).
They come in black too, so it would be best to replace all of them with black ones, they come in various angles as well.
hope that helps, definitely one of the better DIY CAI's done though, most are just hot air intakes.

Ebay seller "Silicone Intakes" has been around for a long time and they have a huge selection of silicone elbows in various diameters & angles for any possible application. You can browse their entire selection by clicking on their Ebay store page link below:

They usually have the lowest prices and have excellent customer service w/ quick shipping.
Hope that helps

The sprintbooster is great, will have my ECU tuned by PowerChip Tokyo Div in October when they open shop. I also ordered a replacement silicon elbow to replace the one after the MAF going down to the filter.
