I omitted the U-shaped intake pipe and installed the cone filter similar to the DCI setup you can buy from BMS. For $3, I bought a 2.5"ID x 2.25" exhaust pipe reducer at a local auto store. I was hoping to find a larger 3" reducer. For that reason I used a left over rubber pipe coupling fitted over the reducer to allow the 3" filter opening to fit snuggly to the pipe. This worked for me, still looks and operates well, and hope it helps tackle some frustrations.
I just put the stock airbox on and sold both the cobb charge pipe and the injen...

I liked the way the injen looked but I liked that the stock airbox was sucking cold air better...and it turned out that my OEM charge pipe wasn't cracked like I thought when I got it off...
