Hmm...Looks like the Vortech elbow. I have had trouble when installing them with a CAI kit, especially AS&M kits. Since they are a solid piece, they have no give and will not flex to allow a slightly different intake system to work without rubbing...

However, it definetly looks better than my 1LE elbow. [Big Grin]

Well I got my Trick Flow intake tube from Summit. Damn Summit is fast!! I ordered it and the very next morning it was at my front door! In the directions it says need to rubber silicone? Also I will have to drill a 5/16 hole in the bottom for the opti-spark vent provision.
