Air Cleaner for A2A

I've got RPM's A2A and am looking for advice on an air cleaner setup.

I'm running a PTE51, with a 3" inlet. This turbo is a little larger than stack, so it extends further forward (closer to the core support). Thus my piping is a little different from standard (Turbo Outlet only).

Before I decided to go A2A, I had planned to use an ATR box with a short K&N that was going to fit - even with the Turbo Inlet positioned further forward).

Now with the A2A return inhabiting that space (along with A/C lines), I am at a loss.

I had an ATR battery relo kit, which has been removed and it looks like the lower fenderwell is a good place for clean, cool air.

In my picture, you can see the 3" 90 elbow and the limited space that I have for plumbing.

It just looks like it's going to be difficult to get intake piping from a filter to the turbo.

Does someone make piping that can be heated and flattened to clear the I/C and A/C pipes (like some of the Camaro stuff that fits between the engine & radiator)?

Or, what are thoughts on flexible/corrugated hoses?

A filter hanging off the front of the turbo, in the hot engine compartment is NOT an option.

Thanks!

Re: Air Cleaner for A2A

I used a cone style K&N that tucked in where the battery originally was:

on how yours looks it might be hard to do that.. have you asked Mike Lee what he suggests for that kit?

Yours looks real sharp. Is that a self-built A2A?

I will contact Mike, just wanted some ideas.

Thanks!
