Hey y'all, it seems I'll be joining the Q45 sub-forum in a more active role.

For those who have modified their VK45de intakes, might anyone have a stock system lying around?
I need all the pieces that connect to the throttle body, coming all the way from the snorkel above the radiator.

I have one of the Keuylian Q45s and it was originally sold with a seemingly-factory setup. When I received it, it came with a short RAM intake and I would like to take it back to its original form for some testing.

This is what it looked like originally, notice the stock OEM piping & shrouding.


This is what it looks like today.


A quick browsing of eBay hasn't yielded much yet. I will buy them new if I have to, but I much rather buy used and save something from ending up in a landfill if a member has no use for it any longer.
Any pointers will be much appreciated.

Welcome to Q Land! That looks like a beast under the hood. I'll keep an eye out for you at our local pull a part. They don't show up very often though.

Thanks Q. It's both a good and a bad thing that they don't show up in wrecker yards often. Somehow we are managing to keep them on the road.
