My intake is a 3" aluminum tube that I painted flat black. It used to look like the one in your pictures, except i cut it to size and painted it. The exhaust manifold is a stock manifold, not aftermarket.
As for the grounding kit, I connected the wires to various points on the car. I tried to get the important points... like the intake manifold, the engine block, the stock battery ground, the frame, and the ecu ground. If I could reach the alternator, I would have attached to that point too. I defenitely saw an increase in MPG...about 2-3 more. Smoother idle and quicker throttle response.
Anyways, if you want pics of exactly where I grounded the points, I can take pics.

I'll probably be installing mine this Thursday or Friday, so if you can post pics that would be helpful. Are they all points that just have a bolt currently, or what determines the specific grounding points?

That looks awesome! Very good idea...I did the same thing....almost. Reset the Comp for 45 minutes only, then drive like a madman!!!! It will remember how you drive.

wont even bother to buy C.A.I.'S...i, experimented w/ diff. C.A.I.'S w/ diff. angle, none of them fit to work. the only way is to extend the pipes across the header, all the way to front right , under the fender well. but hell!! thats a lot of pipes!!!
