The components to create a custom SRI/CAI with a relocated battery are available at any AutoZone or parts stores. Simply look at my signature......

So your really just need one hole for the sensor? And but a breather on the other two?

What did you use? And what did you do with the two hoses that connects to the intake?

the iat sensor i ran to one of the grommets above the rad behind the grille so it still gets the ambient temp and wont cause any problems. The one that runs from valve cover i just put a filter on the end of the vc, my intake pipe is custom made and doesnt have the holes for either one

To fit the IAT into the intake tract you simply drill a hole in the tubing, insert a grommet and then push the probe into the grommet, just like EVERY CAI/SRI ever produced for any application!

The larger tube, which connects to the VC breather, does not have to connect to the intake, a seperate filter can be attached, just make sure it isnt directly on the VC, but after the heater section and approx 4-6" of additional tubing.

the tube after the heater seciton can hang anywhere?
