Intake Straight Pipe Problem

[Captain Natro]

Hey guys, ive taken off the standard cross over pipe and replaced it with straight steel piping without a resonator box. Atm, from the throttle body there is a 45 degree 3inch silicon joiner, then about 30cm of metal pipe then a 3inch joiner, the AFM and a pod filter. As soon as i start the car it stalls instantly, if i rev it slightly it will run but very poorly and as soon as i take my foot off the accelerator the car stalls.

There are two hoses that are not connected to anything atm, on runs to the intake manifold and the other to the top of the cam covers, these at present are not joined to anything. how can this problem be fixed?

(Worst case senario, ill just put the standard cross over pipe back on. But would like to get this to work as have heard the induction noise using metal pipe sounds ok )

Thanks Nikk

It's the one running to the intake manifold if it is a largish hose than it is for the iac valve. Needs to be plumbed into the intake pipe

Thanks Zebra, so just anywhere after the AFM, and before the throttle body?

Yeah

[Captain Natro]

Yeah

Thanks heaps man ill get onto that tomoro , hopefully she'll run a bit better then

[Captain Natro]

Haha i couldnt wait until tomoro, ended up using a piece of a different inlet manifold i had and plumbed it into the intake just before the throttle body, and then attached the ICV hose to it and connected it up. It sounds so good, the induction roar is very nice (Thanks again zebra for the help, would of been stuffed with a car that wouldnt idle other wise )

Yeah would be good to see it on a r33.

i have only seen it done on r34's, I know its easy on a r34 because you only need 2 90 degree pipes and it sounds good aswell.
