Got any pics of it?

CyberShark

unfortuneatly, I don't..The only difference is that it's one pipe, not two sectioned off pieces, (kinda like a "J")connected from the MAF to the enlarged hole after the battery has been moved to the side. Other then that, it's the same thing.

But you DO want to change that piece of rubber, it's ribbed on the inside too, and that bend it has before the TB shouldn't be that healthy either...

But yeah mine and Neo's CAI is pretty much the same. 3" Stainless steal exhaust piping,... and that "Ebay" one that Col (got it off Ebay) is made by a local guy,... long story, but same ones we have.

Haven't had any issues with ours.</div>

Excuse me, but do you think that I would by something like that off Ebay rolleyes.gif

Here is the CAI that I made, & SS has been fine for me. The car goes quite well with it, & I don't really think that the air (which is a poor conductor of heat anyway) would absorb much heat from the pipe in the small amount of time it is in contact. The air will get more heat from the IM anyway, as that will be much hotter than the CAI thinking.gif yup.gif fing02.gif

looks nice polished.... mine is painted to match the car.. then I stuck a "hyundai" on it to make it look more stock...

Not the best pic.. but I was not aiming at the CAI..

Col man, I think he meant Mad-Machine got his off ebay... everyone knows you make all of your own stuff! wink1.gif Also, I'd seen yours before - BTW, it's very nice - but I was just wanting to see what other people had done with theirs.

Mine will more than likely be in 2 pieces, with a red silicone coupler joining them together as I was wanting to add a bit more colour to the engine bay... I might get them welded together further down the track.

Zman, I would like to change the rubber section too but I prolly won't worry about it just yet (another reason for using the silicone coupler)... the vacuum hoses need fittings welded to the intake piping & I don't want to mess around with that at this point in time... I was just saying that Mad's setup would work exactly the same on a MAP based car.

Mad's is like this...

yes, that is it.. mine used to be that fake anodized red.. but once I started colour coding the engine to the body, it looked out of place... Personally, like your's Col.. this style is a much shorter design and I think it keeps the filter up and out of any water on the road a LOT better than the AEM version.

Zman

Yes man sure you can do that too. I did weld two SS smaller tubes to act as the OEM connectors on the OEM rubber hose, you can see that in a pic in my vBGarage; actually you will only see the small one facing the front, because the other one is actually blocked in the pic by the strut bar. Perspective however is tricky, because the filter seems to be much higher in the engine bay than it actually is. I'll take better pics to post when I put my AirRam, Headers and BBTB laugh.gif:
