      Have you tried the napa radiator hose? You can make it fit with alittle modification! Don't quit.

      the problem with the mugen airbox and the k24a2 (my 06 k24a2 at least) isn't the radiator hose. when i tried to install mine i think the oem upper radiator hose might have provided more clearance for the inlet tube. the problem was the lower half of the block just below the VC. the clutch and brake reservoirs were also in the way in their stock locations. added deck hieight doesn't help either.. if you make it work, i'd love to see how you did it. i would love to throw a mugen airbox back into the bay.

      I took some picks of the probleme.





      This is where the mugen box can't pass



      And I've move the oil barke and cluch resorvoir a little bit to keep space for the Mugen DC5 strut bar and it does'nt help me with the air intake.

      I think it's impossible.

      this is the exact problem i had. i couldnt figure out a way around this.



      the hard (black) coolant line and the coolant outlet assembly below the VC got in the way

      also, if you let the airbox sit highers, the top/back portion of the airbox makes contact with the hood

      Hmmm, have you tried looking over at clubrsx? Seems like there are more people over there who might have tried this (aka more 'ballers'..)
