Both are pointless and shit ideas. I tried the half metal half stock(the bigger end). According to Tao, this is a loss of 65rwkw from back to back tests he done. I made 244rwkw. Add 60rwkw you get 304rwkw from the SS2. Ive got it sorted now, full 3" metal just need a retune.

would be interesting to see if the intake pipe really restricts that much power alone from a intake pipe change. awaits your results with anticipation.

if i had time and could weld, i'd make a bunch of these metal intake pipes for you rb20/25 brothers out there.

If it sucks shut it restricts it massively, if it doesn't suck shut then it is fine.

any exhaust/performance car shop will make you one and install it for $200 max anyway so I don't know why people bother assing around trying to make their own etc.

Hanaldo just paid $400 for his intake pipe..lolz. Or was it 300?

With fittings for the bov and pcv connections from the stock piping? I highly doubt it.

Would love to see someone make them with the two connections (pcv and bov) and have it hook up to the factory airbox. I would buy that.

[Mitcho_7]

yeh if someone started making 3" metal intake pipes with stock connections and fitment, id be on it like a flash as well

[lilcrash]

i paid $115 for mine with bov return

Yeh man. I think the extra $200 allows me to put a HKS sticker on it.

Ron picked it on this one. Get the silicone intake off ebay. Then add metal. This stops the silicone sucking in. The silicone internal is bigger then the o d of the 3inch pipe. Fits stock airbox and has bov return etc

[rondofj]

From where dude?? Meaning lilcrash's pipe above

I have the silicon intake from ebay and it never sucks in like my stock one with the $5 mod.

I doubt u will make 60rwkw+ from a less restrictive intake pipe, thats more power than a granny corolla puts out at the wheels, anyways we will await your after-tune results..

The silicone ones I have seen the fittings are way off the standard locations, plus the turbo end is only 2.5". I fitted it in my R34 and the pod filter would not fit in the engine bay with the afm and pod bolted to it lol. I bought it from 888Autobahn or something from ebay. He gave me a refund but didnt really give me a reason.

That was a standard intake pipe with sleeve. Totally different to a 3inchmetal intake pipe with silicone joiners

[SS8_Gohan]

i did the rev210 mod on my GTT, the metal pipe collapsed. Ok for standard, not ok in a high-flow, higher temp situation.

Chasers made me up a full metal intake from airbox to turbo.

What did you use? A coke can??

[DVS JEZ]

Haha.

Daniel what sort of gains did u get

Haha don't tempt me if only I had time. I cant see your intake causing a restriction at all. Plus the straighter the pipe better dose/flutter sounds

If your pipe is sucking closed you will make that much extra power, if it isn't then it won't really help much.
