Here is a parts list of what we used to assemble these systems:

1-My Extended Custom Finished Pipe w/Grommet
1-Spectre 8791 Black 3" Low Profile 90° Elbow Boot with 2.5" Insert and Band Clamps
1-Spectre 8771 Black Intake Tube Coupler and Band Clamps
1-Spectre 9405 Air Flow Sensor Mount Tube
1-You Pick Air Filter, Custom Brackets, and Heat Shields

Here are some pix from today:













And an in-car FR-S video as well:



We have successfully completed our R&D efforts. PM me with questions.

Thanks!

Brian
Where can I find a tube with grommet like that? Thanks!

Mine was giving me a bog and a CEL, so I had to take it out.

Yeah. It's really no big deal. I'm gonna get the Visconti tune as my next big purchase, and then I won't have the bog issue if I re-install it.

Can you by any chance make an intake kit that will bolt up to the AVO turbo kit? I feel the factory kit will limit power to be had especially with a turbo trying to be fed cold air. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
