FWIW, I have since removed the battery box, but not because of any problems with the filter. I had to replace my batteries recently and liked the looks without it better.

Put me in line for a template is it works also. Template would be nice but it may be easier to draw out a diag. with measurements, bend points, angels,etc. and post or e-mail them. thanks for the good input

I have the 6637 in my x and did no mod to the box just unbolted what was ness. It's a tight fit but not exteem. More turbo noise for sure from a all factory (except chip) esp. when towing. Must turn up the music and yell even louder to be heard in the back of the short bus. I like the sound in town and not terrible just crusing. Got everything I needed for swap including rubber washer for spacing for filter change indicator and 4" pipe at our Napa.

Talking

NS250 - One of the shops I talked to told me to try a truck (Big rig) repair shop for the 4" exhaust but I didnt have the time to call any yet - Hope this might help out but that new 4" exhaust does sound pretty good . LOL

Thanks, I kinda figured that, but to tell you the truth I only called the 4 or so closest places to me. So I haven't really been trying to hard. I think I may just bite the bullet soon and get the new 4" exhaust and use the left over piece for the ccv mod and the 6637. Although, I have the 6637 on there without a pipe and it seems to be working just fine.

yeep that 1200* paint they have for calipers or somthing, , but i have to tell you one thing, the paint is really easy to chip it off, i used etching primer too, and still PITA , send them down with 600grit and 1000, that should be better, i have to do it next time ill get to them, and get clear if you want them to look good, but spray the clear on the wet pait cause if it dries for some reason it wrinkles like old mamas butt , dont ask how i know that,
