Cold or Cool air intake
 
is there a company that makes a hard pipe intake for the NA's? i cant find one anywhere... it almost looks like you could get away with a honda intake... not sure though

Supra2NR 10-25-2006 03:04 PM

nobody makes em,
most of the cold air intakes here
are jus custom made

You may want to try here. Theyhave a lot of stuff, expensive, but damn, EVERYTHING is these days......

no offense, or to shoot down ur idea, i ddnt even look thru the website
but im guessing a cold air intake from those companies will be around $200?

a lot of pple have did it already
why not jus make one for ur self?
pipes; mandrel bent or welded, from a muffler shop
the converter , so u can attch 3 inch pipes to the afm
rubber couplers, metal clamps, and a cone air filter
and u got urself a cold-air intake

Man that cooleze crap is expensive! I'd rather build my own too. PVC will do the trick.

In order for it to be cold air he needs to route it to the inside of the bumper or get a heat shield just slaping on a cone with a modular intake is not cold air.

honestly, im not looking to push any numbers out of my supra
i just wanted to shine up the engine bay a little, and i already have the MAF adapter and filter

Supra2NR 10-26-2006 11:16 PM

it has a heatshield and piping routed to the lower part of the bumper

i kno this may sound bad, but all of that was from pepboys
including the pipes
but since he wants looks, why not
it also gives u few more ponies under the hood

I got a universal intake system from pep boys and the adapters and I think it looks pretty good. All together it cost me around 65 bucks or so.

That reminds me I have to change the info in my sig...I have that exact same setup on mine...Spectre right? Except my filter sits in the bumper and the AFM sits on the engine side. Its tricky as hell to do but its poosible. Will post pic as soon as camera is delivered tm

Looks cool, but isnt that just sucking warm air from inside the engine compartment?

h8z2luze 10-27-2006 03:17 AM

I dunno it runs a lot better than the pvc pipe that was on there.

Boostesi 10-27-2006 04:12 AM

i got my MAF adapter and filter from pep boys.. i was skeptical about buying the pipes though, comes out well from what i saw in that pic up there

Actually becuase of where it sits the fan hel-ps with cooler air. If you don't want to go through the hassle like I did and put it in the bum-per you can actually use half of the stock air box as a heatshield. Its not an amazing heatshield but it works for the most part from what I understand.

i used heat sheilds that pple use to cover thier windows
used two layers of it with plastic in between
and no connection between the two layers

seems to be keeping the hot air out of the intake area
and the tube leading down, i also got a vent for it now
