i will get some pics up when i install it
I've got one of those for my 89 EB. I looks really cool, and I notice that it gave me a bit of power instantly (some people may argue this). It also make the engine sound meaner. I didn't expect the intake to make a difference in sound, but it sounds angrier.

I had a few problems that I had to work around. The intake hose that came with it was too short and the hadware for the mounting bracket that attaches to one of your pulleys had the wrong size holes and bolts. But after working around these problems I'm really happy witht he kit.

Looks just like mine. I have had mine for awhile, I would suggest using some silicone where the rubber attaches to the metal plate that holds the filter. That rubber that goes all the way around the mounting plate tends to vibrate off, or in my case it vibrated off one edge and then tore. I found that when I replaced the rubber adding some silicone to secure it on the plate kept if from coming off.

I've been looking for one, something like that just seems like a good idea to me. But I haven't had any luck finding one.
