What do you guys think of my turbo intake?
3" SS pipe with a 45 degree bend, paint and an Apexi filter and CUSTOM intake flange. The black coupler was from atpturbo.com and its a 3" hump hose.
Comments Welcome!

Looks good, man. I'd throw a heatshield behind it to keep the hot radiator air from going straight into the filter.

True, but the greddy intake was almost in the same spot. Its something I'll def. consider, thanks!

Re: (kelsonmassif)
thanks guys, it was easy just 2 cuts on my saw and same paint and 2 or 3 test fits. It was cheap and it works great, plus I had no other room to put a filter, so I lucked out

Re: (FourG63 97GST)
Looks good What kind of paint is that? It looks nice
I also have the Apex filter and I love it, I don't have as much room as you, so I just bought a 90 deg silicone elbow and it sits on to the right of the radiator hose sticking straight up. The flange I have it plastic so I just conected it directly to the 90 deg coupler.
Fredo I knew you had this same filter before, but how did you have it before?

Re: (THE_HX)
haha thanks, I painted the motor before I dropped her in with high temp paint from home depot. Lots of people say it might flake off and stuff, but we'll see.
Let me see if I can answer the questions:
Yes we all know the motor is clean
The Silicone Coupler wont melt as far as I know, I had them with the greddy kit and they were fine after 23k miles, and they were in the same location.
I had the crappy greddy intake that came with the 00 Si kit.

Sweet...nothing beats custom. I jock the apex filter too. But let's give credit where credit is due. The IN LINE PRO manifold rules. I have the same one on my 99 Si turbo. Oh and great choice on the ride and color.

Re: What do you guys think of my turbo intake? (Hella_JDM)
I got the flange from VTEC69, try looking on ebay for a $10-15 knock off air filter and rip the filter off it and use the metal at the end.
You guys want me to take a pic with out the filter mounted to get a better idea?
