I don't play guitar, but my cousin has an Ibanez and I think it looks so nice that I'd love to buy it and hang it on my wall as decoration.

Well I finally got around to installing it, i followed the original engravings on the baseplate but modded it for a blacktop (the engraving on the back was for a silvertop)

the sound has diminished quite a bit but i haven't modded the stacks to fit inside so maybe i'll get some of the sound back. it looks pretty cool and i'm pretty happy with it thus far.... too bad my AEM afr gauge died on me a week ago as i really would like to monitor the afr values with this intake...

You keep using the tea strainer as your filter or will you replace it with a pod filter in the future?

I have an apex'i 500-A022 ready to install, I opened up de filter to 80mm (it's 75mm stock) and I'll have Mike make me a nice custom pie cut intake tube
until the tube is done i will keep running the tea strainer for old times sake

That's a lovely neat setup. There are probably plenty of good filter options to choose from nowadays.

yeah any filter with an 80mm opening would do... I was also considering the new Greddy unit but decided upon the apex'i as it is very well known and loved.
