I spent my Canada Day working on the X and I finally put my old TRD CAI intake on the new X. It required a bit of persuasion but it does fit and it looks pretty good. The Coupe cover really makes it stand out though.
The biggest issue was of course the air pump. I relocated it in front of the power steering reservoir and it fits right in there. I had to fab up some aluminum brackets to hold it in place as I really didn't want to spend the money on the Air Raid bracket. The harness was made longer by about 12". The other main issue was the location of the A/C lines. They had to be moved so that they laid side by side rather than vertical. To get the air box to fit I had to use some stand offs about 3/8" high under the air box before bolting it down.
It was a late night so I didn't get too many photos but here is what I managed to get....
