Don't currently have on in my car, but I do have some in mind!

The Dragon Intake System from www.rswerks.com has one for the 91-96 Legend w/ or w/o TCS.

This one runs for $149.00 w/o shipping.

Then there's the one from NOPI

This one runs for the same..$149.

Not sure which to get, because I don't think anyone on the boards has either...correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey Mike, you got a part number for that filter? I'm assuming K&N.

Was it hard to install? Anything I should watch out for?

Thanks.

weapon r dragon intake here from rswerks.com. i got this intake months ago before they were offering that "free gift". to me, its not the same thing as just adding the filter to the stock plastic piping because i went that way before.

Kamlung, where are those hoses on the nipples going to? I was going to just put a breather on the nips, but If they are supposed to be connected to something I'll connect them. Thanks

Thanks...

lolz okay u gotta get a 180 degree mandrel bend 3" pipe.. they sell it at jcwhitney... since the pipe is basically U shaped... it has all angles in the U so u can measure and cut... lets say u have a 2.5 and the curve is more like an S than just a L shape... then u can make two cuts and combine the curves... measure where ur vaccum tubes go and drill holes... then add a filter on the end and boom u got a homemade intake...

i decided to paint the intake to match other parts in the engine bay so here is a pic of the tube drying...

here are the nipples...

so now the intake matches color w/ the throttle body cover and engine cover..

the nipple for the valve cover is not needed. just plug it up or run the line straight down. its for ventilation.
all it does is builds up carbon-soot in your intake and on the TB

so i dont need to hook up the 2 nipples? I was just going to put a breather filter on one of them and cut the other one out. Isn't the purpose of the tube coming from the nipple to prevent moisture from building up inside the tube??
