Default constructive criticism on intake

So i have yet to find a good solid under hood pic of a stock intake. For some reason mine is incomplete (or so it seems.) YES i did concentrate on a m3 tranny swap before even making it a dd...but it was an opportunistic event that has been completed Anyway guys is this thing incomplete or whats the deal....

also tried looking in real oem to no avail

You need a new intake. That thing looks like it's broken or been hacked. I have a complete M44 intake with the foam tube that runs over the fan to the passenger healight as well as the shroud that the tube sits in. LMK if you want it, I'll sell it for cheap.

BTW, I wouldn't be suprised if your MAF is damaged and your throttle body is all gunked up from sucking in unfiltered air through that hole.

I thought I had a spare MAF, but I remembered I sold it to Marv17 a few months ago. Anyway, here's what i have, everything you need to install the upgraded M44 intake setup:







As you could see, it's all there. No damage or cracks, the foam tube is in perfect condition with no splits or tears. I'll include the AUX fan for a little extra.

Edit; I cleaned it up and took better pics.

No worries, just LMK when you're ready. Thanks for compliment on the lawn, it's usually greener but we're in the middle of a drought and trying to conserve water a little

If you're just gonna fix your old one, you should tape over the hole that the resonator box attaches to. Don't use that hole to fog the airbox because it lets in unfiltered air.
