well i've been bored lately so i decided to make another intake for my allmotor b20vtec ek hatch. i have a headlight scoop that i made a couple years ago for the track and a street intake with a velocity stack that goes in the same location as my new intake. reason for building this intake is that i had everything laying around except the vband assembly, my headlight scoop takes alot of time and effort to switch out at the track, and this new intake will outperform my old street intake with the velocity stack. all intakes are 3" piping and this new intake will be my full time street/strip intake. i do all my own fab work except weld. i will post time slips and hopefully vids as soon as i can get to the track. my fastest time on my headlight scoop using 22x8x13 M/T's is 12.53@106mph and my fastest time with my old street intake with velocity stack(ran in the same location as my new intake) using 185x60x13 hoosier r6 radials is 13.3@103mph(but this was a while go with less hp&tq). the aeromotive sticker is covering a hole!!!

nope. i've been driving it with no filter or screen(mesh) for a while. but this is not my daily anymore and i only take it out maybe once a week and i dont go far with it. if i drive it to the track i will unhook the pipe from the tb cause its about an hour drive to the track.

I really like the intake design and the final look. I'd buy one!! I think it's going to work well. Of course after retune or track tuning.
More like what plenum did you use? IMO, that intake will not work worth a crap if you just plan to mount a throttle body on there. However, Guess you never know until you track it.

You would definitely benefit from creating a plenum for lower end power, seems pretty risky to have all the power up top. If its a straight-liner no big deal though.

I was going to build an intake setup like this when I install my 3 piece front. Moving the rad farther over to the driverside and make the intake duct where the stock rad position would be. Similar to the kseries air induction with the lean mounts but for bseries applications.
