Fire in the hole ...

The 'massaging' was done to make sure the intake doesn't cut the water pipe : ( as this car has a 50mm lift - the engine sits lower down, sat right on the pipe ) https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczPXhavo-YwKdiM-DtJu20XMO3ODk5qGa2goP4j3Zn52e-5j193LJJZkIgaZY0MjlBKJm6PzA0ks2NzoxXzZToZATSc_NB1g4...
