Intake
I picked up a Redline Intake (generic) today and took a look at the AEM DIY and the parts i got in my kit arent exactly the same. Anyways my question is the brackets in the AEM kit...i dont have anything that look like them...i've got a small flat piece about 2" long with a 90 bend and another inch of metal....its gotta hole at the long end for a nut. I assume this is a mounting bracket since my piping does not have one already on. The second one is a long flat piece about 5or6 inches long and with 2 holes at one end and a single hole at the other. I'd love some help to figure out just how these pieces are supposed to be used. Also the (what i think is) small mounting piece with the 90 in it.....does it get spot welded on or what?

Rep Power: 0 that is the funny part.....no instructions 
i have figured out that the smaller piece in the mounting point that i will need to spot weld on....or i could attach it down low (outta sight) with zip ties.....that should keep her from moving around too much. The second piece i figure is for the throttle cable......i think....i dunno....i would take pics but i dont have a digi cam.....

look there is NO difference with damn pipes....the only difference is if you get a LARGER DIAMETER PIPE....I belive the injen is largest...BUT ebay has the same generic intakes...all you have to look for is in the pic..If they show a coupling thats smaller on one end and bigger on the other that means its a large diameter pipe and not like my cheap *** intake thats only like 2.5"........check the pics! Also the filter comes into consideration also...i just bought a stainless steal filter and damn it looks so thin! get one of these filters

Rep Power: 0 Is you ride a auto or Stick? is your intake a short or cold air?
If it is a stick with a cold air, your bent bracket might be for the relocation for the clutch bracket! That is the way my AEM mounted up.

its a stick and a CAI
i figure that the bent piece is four mounting to the motor somewhere...cause there isnt any welded on mounts....i'll probably zip tie it too though. *** spot welding that ****....crap isnt even the right colour as the intake!!! I think the long piece is the clutch bracket. The AEM is kinda like a flat 90(and a bit more) with 3 holes. Well mine is a straight peice of similar length wiht 3 holes also....we'll have to see how it holds...
LAST QUESTION
do you think a zip tie down low will be sufficient to keep it from shaking to much?

Rep Power: 0 how did you guys install the generic intake from ebay w/o the tranny bracket? this one from ebay has looks like it has the tranny bracket but it is missing the welded tabs on the intake.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2431646734
also is it better to get an intake w/o the tranny tabs but with the welded tabs or this intake.
