Default home built cold air intake

Now remove the passenger's headlights and such so that you can grind away any high spots so the pot's feed duct will sit flush to the back of the radiator support.

You may have to move the radiator's reservoir over a little to have things fit. The stock/OEM turbo intake duct will work just fine if you're in a pinch.
