GT-Spec? I can't tell from those pics... too far away. New or used? Looks like you painted the brackets black... good move.

After personal back & forth between GT-Spec and Cusco, I'm leaning towards GT-Spec as a b-day self-present next month. (Damn you, ashmostro )

I like the tubes...but aren't they supposed to have some clamps on them?

Otherwise - looks good!

Weight reduction...no honestly mine didn't come with clamps and it's so snug a fit I never really worried about it. I guess I should email z1motorsports about it and find out for sure.

Better safe then sorry...mine are a tight fit (very tight), but still wouldn't want to risk having it come loose due to the air pressure!

Worst comes to worst, just use the stock ones if Z1motorsports don't send you any.

Looks good!

Weight reduction - hahahahaha

Correct - they didn't come with new clamps. BUT - you probably should re-use the OEM ones. Those tubes go through a lot of heat cycles - and could loosen up with time. Having one slide off would be no fun...

Good Luck!

I like how the Injen kit mounts the MAF sensors, all nicely tucked away.
