rc0032 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ok as to stop the flaming... From the looks of the pictures your cold-air intake is taking raw air into the engine after the filter. This is BAD! You do not want un-filterd air in your engine. Can you take a few more larger pics of the actual mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you take a few more larger pics of the actual mod? What are you talking about? Theres no opening after the filter. the size limit for pics is pretty small so Ill try to get a closer shot. the only 2 openings left after the filter are the knock sensor and some kind of mass air sensor or something and that was reatatched with a hose extension. the knock sensor got a mini filter so it doesent smell like oil. its all good I had 2 dif mechanics look at it and they thought it was awsome.

brooklyngenius Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 what somebody should do is get a gt hood with the scoop and then fabricate a top mounted large panel filter box. itd be like ram air. useless signature line where i cant mention my sponsors "First Bagged BL5!"

ebpda9 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 or just drill a hole in the hood and have it come out like a stack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDubya77 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I did almost the same thing on my 98 Imp, except it was the panel that was on the front passenger side of the hood...it really didn't do much though, except get the filter dirtier...CAI are overrated IMHO....2 hp difference = 20 lbs of junk I can take off of the car :woowoo:check out the Diamond Gray Metallic Monster!!!

OhBe1 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 From the pic, the air is filtered. All he's done is open the hood scoop & remove the plenum, making a short intake. Whether cold air actually gets to it, or whether there are resonance problems at the MAF, are the issues, I'd think. 06LOB2.5i MT, JDMRSB, GYTTs, HPS, LGT Mufflers & Leather Wheel, SubiMomo Knob, Inalfa Moonroof, Clutch Switch Bypass, DeDRLd, DeChimed, & Straight Headrest.

iroczu Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 very loud:icon_twis have to agree.... not to overly flame but... taking air in after the filter... ya... just keep running it and see what'll happen later... not my bill to pay. mind you... it's like taking a hoot from a bong and not plugging the little hole before.. well ya.. easy to figure out... my 2 cents:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prodriver1 Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 what somebody should do is get a gt hood with the scoop and then fabricate a top mounted large panel filter box. itd be like ram air. I have the turbo hood and used aviation snips to cut the backing a little so I could bend it to angle the air to it the only problem is relocating the moisture trap that needs to be angled down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
