I get what you're trying to do but agree with other posts. IMO either leave it stock, or mod it properly with stuff that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put a Monza cooler on it only because it is quite a bit better than the factory cooler, didn't require any cutting and didnt disrupt air cond pipes etc, and still allowed enough air into both radiator and air con condensor. Kn and airbox mod just to make sure that air intake would never be wanting particularly in the temperate Queensland whether. The rear muffler was a suggestion just to reduce back pressure and allow it to make some sound. The crossover was just an idea to allow little better flow into the TB. But I must say as I;m polishing this thing I really think that it will look amazing in the engine bay. Mind you its a huge job with 2 1/2 days of sanding and polishing and I'm still far from finished. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upgrade it to something like a plazmaman stage one. It's similar in looks and size to the Monza but actually cools your intake temp so when the weather starts to warm up you won't notice so much of a power drop.

That said I'm happy with how it came up. I was able to add about 10% extra flow (unfortunately I didn't take pics) to intake, and create a much smoother path, as it is the biggest restriction in the whole system.
