   I actually pushed mine down under the rad pipe so its now on the other side of the pipe, and then cable tided it there, so its solid and doesn't move. You may also need some silcone hosing to attach it to the throttle body as the suppiled one sometimes it not long enoughHere a pic of mine:

   Easy job to do, everybody that has ever bought a raceland scoop has had to do the same so your not the first and you wont be the last

   I may also add I had to make some brackets out of stainless steel to get it to fit properly too, was a ball ache but it sits really nicely now

    Well my brother works at a factory so "Borrowed" some stainless steel for me lol. Was a pain in the ass to drill through tho, but iv now altered it slightly so it now sits prefectly. You should give it a go, all you need is a drill, i didn't even have a vice so I used bare strengh to bend it

    Well when fitting it the problem I had was the pipe wouldn't go to the breather pipe without bending (which I didn't want) so i just looped it round back on itself if you get me? So the pipe didn't have a kink in it

    Thats right kamracing, its easy to fit u just gotta move ur steering bottle and thats it.
    
    
    
    As u can see my bottle is more to the right of the bay, u just undo a screw and thats it.

    Yup, agree when I fitted my Green it took longer to remove the airbox than it did to fit the Scoop, plus when I remove it to clean and polish the internals of the scoop from time to time I can remove the filter in under 5mins

    Yea its one of those things that once fitted is very easy to remove to clean, and they look ace, im not a fan of the raceland one's with the vts stamp on them, but then thats because I don't have an 'S'

    Iv just got the standard filter in mine, you will want this one for better air flow as its bigger than the standard one:

    Gove good gains when coupled with an exhaust system
