hmm search the site I know there are guys with cold air intakes on the 3400. I got the ecotec, and the whole 2.2L specific part of this site is littered with guys asking about air intakes, so I'm pretty limited.

DIY be all redneck ricer and use PVC pipe LMAO or get some universal intercooler pipe couplers and clamps, put the filter into the fender behind the wheel well where the "hidden" factory intake box is but remove that old box first.

Since the elbow was in upside down, you were giving away HP to the car behind you, correct it and you'll gain back the 48 HP you should have gotten when you install the unit in the first place.

doubt it, he wanted the looks of a turbocharged car and figured the intercooler would cool the air on an N/A car just as well as a turbo car, without realizing the intercooler is there to maintain the temperatures to what N/A would be (ambient) since boosted applications heat up the air.
newbies, lots of them get that idea once in a while

it might not be rubbing... but its dangerously close to your positive battery terminal. if that touches, even slightly when the car launches or is idling.. your going to have a small fire on your hands...
