Air Intake

[RPR33]

hey guys I'm looking into a new air intake and was just wondering wats the best way to go about it I was thinking to do a steel pipe from turbo to pod but what size pipe? Should I just go the size of the turbo mouth straight thought or should I make the pipe widen out and then back to pod size? should I put the pod down thought the intercooler pipe hole not in use (due to front mount) for cooler air?

Also how will this effect response? I have a stock turbo (r33s2) but it has a steel front wheel? If that helps

Cheers

well if it is a series 2 and the turbo has the steel front wheel it has either been highflowed, or replaced with a series 1 turbo (possibly the original turbo blew). unless the car is a 95 model, in which case it is actually a series 1.

anywho, as for the inlte pipe, you are best to make it about 3" as this is the size of the pod. as for placement, unless you have a few silicone joiners in it, it is best to have it in a relatively standard position. if you have it down behind the front bar and the pipe is rigid it will constantly hit on the body, as the motor doesn't stay 100% still.
