NRG Catch Can with stock intake box?

Soo im trying to install my NRG Catch can, and im running the 06+ Stock air box with the air duct, so i cant mount it there... Is there any other place to mount it? I'm seriously looking everywhere and theres like only one place to put it, but i cant exactly secure it..

Any suggestions?

I used the bracket it came with and mounted horizontal on the left side of he fan shroud, drilled 2 holes and mounted it up with some SS hardware far enough over to keep the long air duct.

Are you serious........measure the distance yourself with a tape measure and cut to fit. Why braided steel line, black high pressure hose looks better and easier to work with? I never understood the concept, "Look at my Hose, I have steel braided line!" I wish we had "Hose Delete."

Simple! some like to tart up their engine bays, same as you like to list all your modification manufactures for all to see

Oh! and i agree about the hose lengths, measure twice cut once

"G35C "Twilight Blue" Volk SF Winnings/Michelin PS2/DBAs/Stillen Sways/SPL Endlinks/Strut Bar/Tein H-Techs/Bilsteins/Nismo Diff Cooler/Fjuita Intake/MD 1/2" Spacer ISO/HKS Exhaust/Berks/Polished Plenum+P/S & Rad Tanks/Gordee/Gialla/KurumaZ/Impul/Nismo Diffuser/Projectors/JDM Tails & Clears/AMSOIL"

Having built more than a dozen rides I've tried to make the focal point not the hoses and wires but the engine itself with paint and polish. I don't want to pop my hood and have a bystander say, "Nice Hoses!" I'd much rather hear, "Wow super clean engine, is it new? Which I've heard before on most builds and only use black hoses hoping they'll disappear. Understand?
Gary

I am still in the early stages with my 350GT, not sure just how far i want to bother to go as it not exactly a pretty engine/bay, far to many hoses and wiring,
this is my last build, kind of regret selling, but i needed a less OTT vehicle
