I found a thread on another form but it was not the correct cone size it was for the ss/sc and they have a different setup than us.

Okay the only cuttin you have to do is the top of my air box and that is it I dont think I have a dremal around but ill try in the next day or so, if you want it right away you would have to come to delta and get it cause im about to start my weird ass work schedule, this is going to work great I wish I would have gone this route,

Get the refund and unless you can get a good fitting cone wait to later this week and we can do it inone shot, the cone should be 3inches to squeze it in for a tight fit, since the box is a hard plastic there will be no sence in getting a braket, I just measured it so it is accurate
