A 4" pipe would be a slick idea but you you would either have to find a filter with a 4" inlet or work out some kind of a reducer to get the K&N 4750 to work.

Interesting comparison between those two pics posted above. Notice the much more gradual turn on the rice pipe? Much preferred over a nearly 90° bend. That bend restricts flow in a big way.

Optimus, your attitude prevents you from having an open mind.
Your 90 degree bend is the worst thing you could do with a piped intake. Period. Fluid dynamics obviously escapes you, as have all the succesful intakes we've built here.
On top of all that, I can't get over your unusual insulation placement. We're trying to reflect heat BACK to the filter, right?
