ya make sure you fabricate a GOOD heat shield. Im sure it sounds good though.. And why did you keep the horn/trumpet on there??? (after the maf-between maf and filter) Its really only useful when in the stock airbox, and i dont see how that filter can be sealed up against it very well since there is a lip on the end of it...?
Sorry to keep knit picking, but i would also turn/twist/aim your MAF so the wiring is facing the opposite way, not towards/leaning onthe hot side/heat shield.

Dude any criticism is good criticism, so dont hold back.. Well I kept that piece because if I took that out, I wouldn't be able fasten the cone anywhere, and it is sealed pretty good it is fitted right on the lip and does't move..

He is from the UK, you'll only get about 1/2 of what he says, still learning the naming differneces.

Your intake is fine, just clean things up a bit and your good.
