Default Need help on how to make An Intake

I did a custom piping set-up, and I was wondering how, or where I can buy an Intake for my setup. I'm running a t3/04e w/ a 3" drier hose that is getting F-d up. And its really ugly.


Where Can I get a Drag Intake tube??

PVC plus mad heat from turbo
Do JC whitney U-bends, cut them on the angles you want and weld them back together, that how every pipe in my car is.

He went outta business bro My engine bay looks incredibly similar to yours. I have a hacked off 6" piece of an old intake and have the filter directly behind the fan. Not perfect, but it will probably be a good temporary improvement. It's tight, but mine fit, your filter looks a bit larger than mine though. My ultimate plan is to get a civic sized radiator and have room to run the piping forward and use some sheet metal to guide air towards it

you could possibly buy a 45 degree bend or a 72 degree bend mandrel pipe depending on what you need to clear . . . . and paint it and slap a filter on it. Only like $20

Which piece are you referring to? Is it the S shaped pipe, or just the simple small elbow?

Well, my turbo makes "mad heat" (is that celsius or farenheight?) and I have not melted the PVC yet. Neither have any of my friends with 11 and 12 scond cars, who have had PVC intakes for a year or more.
