lookin through ebay and found this intake airbox setup. wonderin if anyone has it on thier car. i wanna see some pics of it on the car.

 

it looks good! how much? just replace the filter with a k&n and you are set.

 

ya its only 35 bucks buy it now and 20 shipping. i was thinking of painting the whole thing flat black. and changing the filter. i would really want to see some pics installed.

 

That's a unique unit. Never seen it before.

 

Yeah flat black would look cool. I'm tired of the CF look.

 

next generation whale *****!

 

haha. every one loves the whale ****.

 

Funny thing is, the whale ***** a bandwagon part. A short ram with a velocity stack is proven to work better.

I'd like to see if it works, though. Could you post a dyno chart when you install it?

unless you pay what you would buying it from a reputable shop... which in that case why buy ebay?? lol

 

I'd like to see some additional photos of the air box, particularly the inside and where it draws in air. It looks as though it should perform rather well, though the filter is a bit on the small side.

 

just toss a foam mushroom filter on top of that and your good to go... it will perform better then that lil thing they give ya.

 

I'm interested...

 

Buy it and install it haha, I wanna see what it looks like installed.

 

Looks like a cheap piece of **** IMO. But enjoy

 

wow. i guess this is a new thing. ill get it and see how it looks installed. for cheap stuff that might be good.

 

I'd Definitely buy it if I had a horizontal plenum intake manifold.

dx/cx intake manifold FTL

 

still wantin some pics?

 

I am trying to figure out where this thing would even go....the piping makes it look like it would end up in the middle of nowhere.

 

Exactly why it would be nice to see pics.

Damn, give the guy some time to buy and install it. He just started this thread yesterday.

covering your air filter in a box wont make it get more air.

The box will block the heat from the engine bay, thus allowing "colder" air (less stagnant air) to enter the intake. This is the same sort of idea that Comptech had with their Icebox system and it seemed to perform quite well.

I'd be interested to see how this works as well. If its not too expensive, I'd be interested in it, even if the CF is fake. Just paint it flat black and drop in a K&N filter and you're set.

Edited: Just looked it up on EBAY. Its only $35 so its probably not real carbon fiber, but it doesn't look that bad.
