Intake Piping

[RebelR33]

Hey all I am a little baffled on what widths/lengths/bends I need to go stainless steel intake. I've recently bought a 90mm throttle body and waiting on a z32 afm and I'm new to piping, also is it better if I relocate for better air flow etc..

Wow.

You know you just wasted your money?

[RebelR33]

Why's that?

[Ben C34]

There's no way you need a larger throttle body or z32 with an na 2.5

Will make zero difference to power.

[RebelR33]

But if you combine that with bigger injectors and a tune, logically it should. More air + more fuel = more power amirite..

[GTofuS-T]

Only if you're jamming air down it's throat, an na can only suck what an na can suck, unless you're going to balance it and rev over 10,000, then you would get more air.

Don't take this as advice either

[RebelR33]

I'm not looking at turbo amounts of air.. Anyways this thread is getting derailed. Can you answer my initial question?

[Ben C34]

Bigger injectors is another waste of money.

You are not doing it right

^this. Big waste of $ that will get u nowhere but continue if you wish.

[admS15]

If you must and want to do something that will make a real difference. Nitrous. That is all. Bye.

this thread delivered.

Sell n/a buy turbo

[RebelR33]

I only explained what I bought so that I could get the piping size and asked whether it was better to relocate etc..

[mr skidz]

cold air intake and a modest free flowing exhaust and maybe a tune tidy up is about all you can do. Naturally aspirated will only ever breathe atmospheric pressure it doesn't matter how big the pipe is in diameter something has to draw it in or slam it into the motor for it to be effective and you have nothing..

You would get better results from weight reduction and better tires.

good luck

Really I appreciate all of the performance advice, but I'm just asking about my intake pipe.

[Hadouken]

Intake pipe needs pod filter for less resistance.

you already know size of throttle body

Run 80mm from AFM and step up to TB or run 90mm from TB and step down to AFM..

it faces east to west so you'll need at least 45 or 135(?) degree elbow and straight piece and probably another elbow depending on filter location.

Got the pod, thanks for the info.

Then please report back how much difference it made.

The honest answer is:

Do not make an inake pipe.

Do not upgrade the throttle body

Do not change the AFM

If you've already done this, do nothing except replace with stock items and sell what you've already bought.
