My stance is against dumb people has stood since 1985 anyone can be a consumer, few can be innovators, so for all those who feel bad because you over paid someone else with intelect to make your car faster my hat is off to yall. Because one day I will sell t-shirts with dumb slogans, and you will buy them. So I am glad yall remain sheep, a slave to name brands and athsetic qualities

 

I give u props for making an intake urself, but it just looks sloppy. A muffler bend? Come on now, thry sell bent pipes. And what did u do with the vac hoses?

 

indivual filters for the vac line, the bent part is a 3 in mandrel bend, I deleted the 2 tubes that ran to it vac and coolant so no excess oil evaporation will enter the tb

Painted! http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/8113/sdc16600.jpg

 

the paint definately made the ultimate intake.

 

:ghey:

 

still looks like steel

 

u shud go 2 car meats and show pplz wat they think

ULTIMATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I do, people like my car, its the only one like where I am from, plus people are more respectful down here, if you walk up to someone and there with their boys nothing negative comes from your mouth, unless its about someone more than 50 feet away that its trying to do a burnout or something else stupid, my friends like what I do, they make a face if its kinda funny looking but they keep it respectful knowing I made it

 

I bet everyone on this forum never tell me one negative thing about my car if we met at a car meet, One my car is nice and not over done, 2 I am a nice guy, everyone want ot be my friend, 3 I look like I can kick someones ass with ease. The fact every is a faceless critic on the forum allows me to disregaurd negative feedback, fueled by jealousy and ignorance

 

wow
i bet you do "look" like it..

 

Ill tell u straight upn that I don't like it. I'm not holding anything back. But its ur car so u can do what u want to it

 

props for doing it yourself.... but I would never put that in my TL

 

LOL no. no one is jealous of that thing you made. or ignorant of the fact that any name brand or even an ebay cai will flow better than your homemade version whether it be your ultimate pvc cai or this one. its your arrogance that rubs everyone the wrong way. you make the ULTIMATE something without showing any type of proof of its "ultimateness" and put everyone down for by name brand items that actually work.

 

yip

 

this thread , and the Ultimate intake

 

Should have but joined them and welded them like i did. Its much cleaner looking and smoother for the air.

 

still maybe not the best, idk, but a WHOLE lot better looking though

 

steinless steel is heavy but i can make 4" intake my self... i have pipes and TIG but still its heavy, whats the size of Injen CAI pipe ?

 

injen is 3"

 

ill try make my own tonight

 

Didnt say it was the best, but it is much better. I have all smooth transitions and no seams.

 

nice to see foward thinking 4 once

 

thats pretty good...looks like itll deliver good flow...did u paint it?

 

Yea, that was during the mockup of my 6 speed conversion. Its black right now, but will be painted Laguna Green to match the car when i paint the front clip this spring.

 

thats what i did last night is not finished yes, im gonna do test fit first and also holder + clean it with acid. sorry for iphone pic

 

^^^^LEARN!!!!!!

Now that is some nice clean work

 

Nice work

 

nice! thats > said ultimate.

 

i was wondering if i have to make the holes for vacuum? idk if its vacuum but i dont think its necessary...

 

I like my 4" P2R just fine!



4" small P2R Filter I just replaced with a large 4" K&N





I think it's great you did it yourself and I understand it's frustrating when people attack your work but ethuggery is never the way to go.

 

looks like someone knows how to weld


and for those "vacuum" tubes, you should put them on, the big one is for the PCV system, then the small one is for the evap system (gas tank fumes) i think (can't remember right now)

so the PCV one is not absolutly critical, but just means one less filter that you have to maintain seperate

then the evap system, there is the possibility of it actually throwing the check engine light, because the ecu does not see the o2 responding right, (and it is only gas vapours, coming through that one)

 

just screw in a brass barb fitting into the pipe. thats all

 

then it creates turbulance , and if he can weld like that (or who made it), i don't think it will be a problem welding a simple fitting on

 

i weld it. tonight i will take measurements of fittings and weld them to it. also im not sure that this thing will fit. it is really huge. and also i have to buy filter. how much did you pay for filter e30cabrio?

 

, but anyways was that tig???
