[rant]Sorry if I was harsh and sounded like bashing Larry to the pulp he is, but it's a dam shame he is very comfortable about the situation he has put you in and then cussing you out on top of it. Around here bad deals and shitty attitude like that, someone might end up in the hospital or get sued up the ass.[/rant] Now on topic: order some 3" aluminum pipes, bends, and U's and just fabricate your own cold air intake. Follow the link MacGyver provided as it's a perfect example of a solution to your goal without any welding!

LoL. No way, man. That comment was actually for you 
But seriously, the Thompson tube just isn't "shiny" enough for me. I'd sell it for a good price if you want it Allan.

My homemade 3" short ram is made from PVC. It works fine with the JRSC and no part of it gets hot enough to melt or burn. It only cost me about $40 to build...the most expensive part being the K&N.

Thanks for all your input everyone.
I ended up going with the Comptech Intake and Icebox. It should be here by Friday, I'll let you know how it works out.
Thanks again.

Here's my setup using a generic Eclipse intake:
The intake is cool to the touch even after long trips especially with the double walled heatshield, DEI heat wrap, and cold air ducting installed. In all, it costs about ~$110 for this 3" shortram setup.

I got it from Sonnyballs on this board: http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/Forum40/HTML/007414.html
Summit sells the DEI heatwrap for $50, but you'll only need half of it for a short ram setup. Sell the unused portion afterwards.
