Air Intake

[s1.533]

hey guys,

after doing my exhaust, my next mod is CAI

now i was thinking off getting a pipe coming from the TB all the way to the front bar

so where would i put the AFM, i wouldnt wanna get it wet if i put next to the pod at the front bar.

also where can i get this pipe make up and how much would it cost?

something like this

or go this route drift CAI

thanks guys

to be honest i wouldnt bother, might cause you some idle problems with the AAC valve, also will prob heat up alot anyway

ahh k true.. im not v tec boi! lol

guess ill just have a pod and get that drift style intake

check in the tutorials section,

I made 2 tuts, one on making a heatsheild, one on making a cai to the heatsheild enclosed area.

I did it on my car, which is now turboed, but still has the N/A GTS4 body, which should be basiclly identical to yours.

cops think its fine, theres a noticeable difference of power when at speed as the cold air rushes to the pod.

I had various ideas/designs but went with the current setup as oppose to something like your suggesting for things like :

less cop attention(hopefully)-which seems to have worked

no worring about idle

actual gains in some power if possible

the overall neatness of the system

gl with it

thank for the adam,

yeah i think i might do it like your. get a nice pod box and just put a pip into the pod

Adam, I think the fact that you've done it "properly", kept it neat, and done one very clean job of it makes it look a lot better in the eys of the law. I too am looking to do the same on my R34 soon

Those "long ram" cold air intakes are really popular on NA cars.

The AFM stays in the OEM location, and the pipe design puts the filter in the airflow and routes around the car's bits pieces to get to the AFM. You do run a higher risk of picking up water, since they're inevitably low mounted into the grille.
