If you plan to completely remove the stock airbox and fab up an entire new system, I'd just save the effort, soend the money and get the Racing Beat intake. It will be very hard to match in terms of craftsmanship and is by far the best engineered intake available for the RX-8. If you just want to customize yours, the one in the linked thread is a good way to do it.
