I need a new air intake for the ef the big d**k looking dual tank thingy is craked down the centre so its time to upgrade. I really can't justify $400, (i can but im a tight a**) to buy the 3" intake from di fillipo. Anyone know of a similar item or anyone who makes them on the side for a resonable price.
If not does anyone happen to have the specs on the size, bends and angles of the intake so i could get one made.....

i could try my mates pipe bender but it wont be mandrel bent so i suppouse it would really be counter productive because of the restrictions in the intake.

heres one that I made myself total price like $50.00 bucks or something.
http://img497.imageshack.us/img497/8513/dscn13607km.jpg It's just a straight peice of 3" exhaust pipe from the air box lid with a tin bracket poprivet on one side, then a chrome 90* mandrell bent pipe with has been belled/flared out on one side to fit into the EL black rubber peice (had to keep this as my LPG mixer is in it). The black flexi hose I used is some special stuff which can withstand heat and has a wire spiral in it to keep it rigid and that - at the moment it is longer than needed and so is covering up a bit of the metal pipe - in reality the air is actually only flowing through about 30mm of the black flexi tube! didn't bother cutting it yet incase I had to go back to my old air intake system. Anyways, jsut thought I'd post it up as I'm far to poxy to justify forking out $200+ for one that prolly would be no better performance wise. Main reason I made this one is the LPG backfired and blew up the stock plastic factory one lol! O, I think fuzion is also selling a mandrell bent intake... |
