Can someone post some pictures of there Intake set up???

As in what? Do you want to see what intake manifolds we have and to compare, or do you want to see what air filters we are using? Please be more specific.

grab one big picture i want to see it all the hole set up, manifolders air filer everything https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png!

manifolds********************************8

Heres mine...settin on top of the reworked nikki...that black hose runs down...goes thru a hole in the shielding...then hooks into the airdam thing...bumper...whatever you want to call it...



it's my 5 dollar ram air mod https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



oh...plus all the holes drilled in the breather cover...those help out quite a bit

dude thats awesome man! ill do that https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png thanks alot!!

was gonna post pics, but you have a 12a car so it wouldn't really help. falcoln0014 has a good setup for you. Another idea is to cut a hole in the sheet metal shroud that the radiator mounts to and route your hose through there under the nosepiece/in front of the radiator so you're sucking cold air. The 13b cars already have the hole cut.

i saw a pic of someones car with the shrout off, can i take that off?? does its have a better affect? see i got a new radiator resentally and my clutch is all bent from the accident and my light comes up as over heat exhaust system sometimes or add coolent.. and i want to see if i can maybe get something working there, maybe try to bend it back ?? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png its possible i think and it could work but i need some expert advise!!



i still want an e-fan tho

i have tried several setups as far as intakes are concerned. i have tried RB and K&N and modified stock. personally, i haven't seen a difference, btu then again ... i have yet to dyno my car.



what are your goals?

I've got the rest of my intake setup laying on the floor right now...and after I figure out how im going to mount it...when its light again...i'll get some good pictures and post em up...i was having trouble finding something to use for an intake...and i stumbled upon some 6" to 3" stove pipe...that sewage pipe mounts perfect over it...and a PVC 3" T pipe...sort of



like I said...i'll put pictures of the setup on here providing I can get it to work...and I think I can...not sure tho...i've got several air box lids around...and I'm thinking a ram-air setup might work better without the holes drilled in the lid...but...if its pushing air into the breather the holes might be a good thing...so it doesn't push too much...like a passive blow-off or something...i dunno...guess it'll take some experimentation...as always https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

hmm...lets see...before everybody goes...what on earth...this is what i'm using for my "ram-air" intakes...yes...intakes...plural...i want as much freakin air as I can get...and I figure...hey...got all that space under there anyway...so why not use it



gonna mount all this dung way up under there...where that piece of crap plastic thing used to be...whatever it was...some sort of aerodynamic something or other...it died...shattered...looked tacky with ducktape holding it together...even after I primed it...so...yea



those are stove pipe 6"to3" reducers...and a 3" sewage T pipe...i've got that black stretch hose stuck in there with some self tapping screws...straight thru the hose itself...the reducer on the far right is held on with zip ties and electrical tape...should hold just fine



reducer on the left is held into the pipe with two self tapping screws...have to be careful tho if you crank it down too tight that 6" funnel top pops right out of the neck...oopsie...but atleast it goes back with a little coaxing



and...the old intake hose I already have hooked up...goes in on the open 3" hole...guess i'll just crank some more self tapping screws in there or something to make it fit...I dunno...figure that out tomorrow



phew...one things for sure...every time I do these projects I get high as a kite...remember kiddies...always open the windows when spray painting within the house https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

NICE! ill top that https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png let me think of something new

Falcoln: if you lose the flex hose and replace it with hard pipe you

will pick up a good deal of flow. I once used 4" aluminum flex with

less severe ridges and even that was restrictive enough to choke up

the intake at high RPM.

how can u tell that ur cars choking up from the low flow of air going into ur intake? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683561.gif

i was driving the CRAP out of my tonight...taking it up past 7k...no stumble...no choking...but i've also got two things down there to catch the air...so perhaps that does the trick...I dunno...seems to be working ok tho https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png



i'll tell ya how it performs the weekend after next...when I take it onto the drag strip



really hoping to go up against some rx-7's if they show...also get to race my friend in his 350 trans-am...should be...interesting...

im thinking maybe get some glass to fit in there, i got a ghetto idea of using my lava lamp lol and taking out the filter andd maybe throw some foam inthere on the buttom of my glass intake and let it hang there, give me some advise!

It was running fine before the mod, then started stumbling at high RPM after

installing the cold air intake. I was able to get rid of the stumble by installing

smaller carb jets - this would tend to indicate a flow restriction.

I changed back to my normal jets and converted to the cold air box setup

with no hose at all (intake air came from the cowl area). No problems at any

RPM with that modification.

show me a pic man of that set up

and show me were i can get a cold air intake set up

Sorry, no pics - that was a long time ago. I basically just made it

from whatever I had in the basement that day. As I recall I made the

base plate from fiberboard, and used plastic lawn and garden edging for

the sides. Eventually I padded it with insulation so it wouldn't pick

up underhood heat. This was for a Holley carb - for a stock carb I would

probably just grab a spare air filter assembly and cut a big hole,

then fab some ducting up to the firewall.

Getting air from the cowl area does have the problem of being the same

place your fresh air comes from - might be a problem with gas fumes.

It may be possible to get around that somehow.

On the plus side, there's virtually no restriction and the air temps

go way down. My thermometers wouldn't read over 122 degrees so I

couldn't always get an underhood reading, but temp inside the box, even

at a standstill, was barely over the outside air.

awesome!

how big is the hole that the intake fits on? im gunna try someting wayyy new for an intake

asap plzzzzzz https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

Clarify the question (not sure what you mean)

its ok i got it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Well...heres pictures of my "ghetto-air"...still need to pick up some covers for the intakes I believe...but I'll drive it a while without and see if anything builds up in my breather or not



It may look a little odd...but I like it so far...and it seems to work just as well as it used to...only now i'm sucking air from outside the car



and...I KNOW its ghetto...i've got eyes...so try not to bash my ride too much https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png it is ghetto the valance isnt sprayed!! still the stock brown lol!

lol nvm two tone brown and yellow https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png
