Default Twin intake... =] or =[

If I was to take piping and make a custom air intake leading to another intake, would it improve air flow? or is just bullshit?

Sounds like it would be more restrictive.

i've seen that shiet...i think it would make the air horn in the filter less efficient..cause then there would be less of a vaccum pressure in the pipe and the funnels wouldnt be acheiving much pressure??? IDK...i dont know much about it but thats what i think

This is what I was thinking.

Plus, look at the sloppy *** welds too. What a piece of garbage.

looks pretty crazy though...I think you should look into that bypass valve that has a k&N filter thing on it...that when pressure is achieved in the pipe it will relieve some by allowing air to come through there..bogus kine stuffs

It's only going to suck from the closest one. The only advantage to two filters is more filter media, but if you clean your filter periodically, that's not even an advantage. Having that large of diameter is going to cause slower airflow resulting in less power. The engine can only injest so much air unless you force it in. Also I'd like to point out that those filters are pure ****. They don't filter very well, and they're pretty restrictive.

You're better off with a smaller diameter pipe and at least a K&N filter.

is this true?

i just took a 2.5" with intimader filter out and put in a 3.0 inch with a k&N

by what this guy says, i should use the 2.5 with the k&n and it would be better? how so?

The best route is always the longer 3", preferably past the stock 'hole' to be a cold air intake. A normal K&N is good enough for no loss on a turbo honda (k&n vs nothing), so for a relatively stock honda, it will be more than enough.

Its just that you may need dual elements with cheap foam mushroom types - they suck ***. Someone saw a 40whp increase from going from a shitty ebay mushroom to a normal cotton cone.
