Question Can someone look at these pics of my induction kit?

Please look at these and tell me what i need to fit a standard air box.

I notice the MAF is set in the round plastic pipe, is this normal?

I think i will need to extend the pipe a bit to reach an airbox.

Is the metal bent piece of pipe standard?

The air filter on it is just a shell with some tights pulled over it, i'm not using the car until i've got a proper set up so i need this info urgently.

Thanks
Matt

Question

Oh sorry, 2 of the pics are of a hose on the back right side of the engine (as you look at it from the front of the car) below the intercooler.

I noticed this pipe is blocked off, why would this be?

It does have a bailey dump valve fitted, could this be the reason?

Thanks

The cut off red Samco pipe would normally be a c-shaped pipe that comes up to connect to the OE recirc dump valve.
The plastic pipe with your MAF sensor in looks to be the original part removed from the standard airbox. The short metal section looks to have been made up by whoever fitted the cone.
