as of now, i've never heard of anyone bypassing the airflow sensor. the car won't run without it. but you can just get an adapter that will let you put a cone filter on our maf's. look around ebay a little more. good luck!

what i meen is That air intake is designed to just bolt onto the intake manafold and the cone filter on the end of the tube.

how would i get that piping to work with the air box?
that intake is not designed to have the box in it, and with out the air boxthe car wont work.

at the end of the pipe coming from the throttle body you'd put a clamp and clamp it to the sensor. on the filter side of the sensor, you'd have to get an adaptor.

if you go here: http://groharlem.tripod.com/
on the left click on modification guide, and then click intake. the second pic down is a good view of the setup you'll need.

you dont want that intake. i know of several people who have bought it and are not happy with it. besides the BP, and B8 prefer 2.5" intake pipe to maintain flow velocity.
