i did a quick little mod my friend showed me last night. wouldnt say a mod but more of a removal..theres a cone inside of the tube that connects your air filter box to the tube that goes to your throttle body. just get a screw driver and pry it out. its a cone that restricts the air flow.(i guess thats what it does) but taking it out makes sense to me lol. ill try to take some pics when i get off work

Same size as your sway bar end link.

I honestly don't know as I don't run any sway bars. Im sure if you went to a hardwarestore they'd help you match it up.
