No need to flame on an intake. It's a good start.

Good Start. Save up money for a custom turbo kit, or if it's ur 1st time boosting go with a pre feb kit, greddy kits hit on the y8 and can be found used cheap

u can use the intake as a charge pipe if ur going custom good work, good motor to start with

Intake is a very good start...

A very bad start would be cutting springs and adding stickers.

EDIT: Where is the outlet on the intake pipe going? It should be going to where the breather is...

Don't ever pay attention to the asshats on this site. Anyone who get's his/her jollies by going around and insulting everyone has no life outside of their virtual one on the 'net.

Nice intake. Great way to start down the dark path.

take your breather off and hook the hose from the valve cover to the intake up. otherwise looks good...

Then I have another hose there with no place to go? It's the only thing I could think of and the tech's at work too what do I do with the other hose?

Because oil vapors need to breath out of the valve cover and this works w/ the breather filter, until the breather gets clogged or lets small particles into the engine which will f*ck sh*t up -- to be technical.
