hey is that aluminum foil on your intake.....is it to cut down the engine heat?
The AFe was very hot and makes the air hot. With these Heat shields the air is more cooler.

also isn't the m5 duct blocking your left headlight now? where does the intake pipes lead too? and have you driven, any noticeable gains?
I haven't drive the car yet. (it is late now and I am tired..
) I will do tomorrow. But I think an ECU REMAP is necessary to make the intake opens more widely. I guess.... Because I read in some forums... Dinan recommends the ecu remap if you install a second air intake. Please correct me if I am wrong.
