When you say rubber boot, I have no idea what you're talking about.
probably a stupid question but is the 9" filter you reccomend here as part of the kit washable?
this is a really clean set up.. i was thinking of trying to fabricate something to hold my k&n drop in filter onto the stock intake tube, but that's probably more work that its worth and not as reliable...

If you look at the kit on C & L's site it looks to me to use the 9" filter not the 6". Anyone know for certain? :dw:The c&l pipe is much longer and you'll have to go with the 6" conical, but other than that it should work fine.
.Attention **C&L USERS**I have the C&L truflow pipe and baught everything above, and it does not fit. The 9'' bigmouth took some serious menipulating to get it all together. It barely and I mean barely fit, put in some motor flex and serious problems may arise. I called UPR today and they said I can exchange parts no problem. I will keep the thread posted when I get the new filter in.
p.s. This is a sweet setup and everything else is great, just make sure to do a thorough mock up with any other intake tubes besides WMS.
Ahhh... I did a mock up, but after it was together decided it wasn't a good idea. I already had the C&L pipe so I've been lookin for something to attach to the end, thats when I stumbled upon your write up. I'ts all good though the UPR guys have good customer service and said they would exchange it no problem figured I'd let everyone else know. The C&L peice fit like crap by the TB any how. I ended up grinding it down so that it made a nice flat seal against the stock peice. Changed the angle for the better I supose.
Wondering too...I just went to order one on the site and it's not there. Dangit...FYI; just called WMS, and they are having quality control issues with the manufacture of the rubber couplers (maf to tube, tube to TB) and so they are not selling any of the velocity tubes until they get the quality issues sorted out. I talked with 'Joel' and he indicated that the problem is with a supplier and they hope to have it sorted out soon as its affecting all of their products that have rubber couplers - no ETA. He indicated to call back in a few weeks.
Joel also indicated he had one black powder coat tube in stock - I wonder how much diff teh ceramic coat vs the powder coat makes?
EDIT: Just read this whole thread thru - has anyone been able to get a WMS velocity tube since mid-2007? I get the impression that WMS has had this supplier problem for a long time and simply hasnt dealt with it (?).
