Did you get the adaptor cable from the Dodge dealer? Do you have access to a TIG welder?

I haven't re-dynoed yet but I bet the 90mm/larger inlet pipe made a 100hp difference in my car. You're gonna love it!

Still dialing in tune,and trying to find high flow air filters. If I could fit the spectre 6 inch filters under the hood that would be great but only 5 inch fit and they are a little restrictive ,no pics
