intake air duct
i want a intake system, where would i be able to go and make a custom intake duct?

Re: intake air duct
for a cone filter you can use a cheap adaptor setup for a 90's subaru.
for the piping itself, right now its up to you to make it, no current off the shelf setup is avalible. |
Re: intake air duct
Just gonna go ahead and point out that the stock intake is not that bad, except for the accordian part. It sucks air from the fenderwell, not from the engine bay, so if whatever intake you make doesn't, then you're not really helping anything.
There is a good example here: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=5649 |
Re: intake air duct
icingdeath is right on. Install a quality air filter and maybe straighten out the accordian section and you're there, with a lot less trouble.

Re: intake air duct
i already have a k/n filter in.. i just want to have the piping to extend all the way to the fender. im obviously not gonna put the cone in the engine bay. :rolleyes:

Re: intake air duct
apparently i will have to make the piping myself, what material should i use?

Re: intake air duct
Just consider where you are drawing the air from, and the maintenance of the filter. Dirt and water (slush up north) from the inner fender or, cleaner air from the front. The original Engineers weren't stupid. Bean counters may have restricted their options but, I bet, they weren't far off. Maybe check with where they started from and eliminate the restrictions. Materials? I doubt the engine will know the difference between plastic or aluminum. I hope I'm not sounding harsh. I mean this with peace and good will.:)

Re: intake air duct
dont worry im not offended man, thanks tho.. i guess ill leave it like it is, maybe try to eliminate the accordion? the thing is i saw quite a few members here have a custom intake setup thats why i bothered to consider modding it..

Re: intake air duct
Not for nothin', but can anyone legitimately justify the removal of the "accordion" section of the intake?

Would you be willing to question whether the feature is either negligible or actually positive in its influence to flow? :eek: |
Re: intake air duct
There may be some debate as to how well it works, I have had this one for quite some time and still seems to work great.
