I was bored today so I decided to do this. Materials used were flat ABS plastic, 3" ABS piping, and a JL Audio 3" flex port. Little cutting and filing here and there. I'm pretty happy with how it came out.

 

neat! too bad i already have a CAI, but i'll prolly switch over and do this.

 

clean install. did it make any noticeable difference?

 

nice DIY! I want to do this with my stock EH airbox.

 

your screws dont match!

I'm gonna take it for a drive later but I need to finish making my heat shield also then it's gonna be done.

I know...ran out of the same screws but I'll change them later.

 

cool. let us know how it does.

 

Where did you get your parts? I have been looking for stuff like that to do the same thing for the longest time! If you could let me know where you picked up your parts from, I would greatly appreciate it

 

Car audio shops that carry JL audio will have the ports and ABS plastic. 3" ABS pipe is from and hardware store.

 

lol, pretty creative!

 

now that looks like a DIY id do. good job. let us know how it worx.

First what I did was cut out a template of the vent there. Then I used the template to cut out a ABS piece. Then I got the 3" tubing, glued it into the position I wanted then cut out the hole and filed it smooth. All in all took me about 1.5 hours.

Thanks for all of the replies. I just came back from a spirited drive and all I can say is wow. Big difference. No you REALLY feel the throttle response and it actually feels stronger than my old AEM CAI on my butt dyno I remember a post I saw of BOB-DC2 and his set up do I decided to try it and I'm damn glad I did.

 

that looks real good

I'm still working on it but I am unsure of what material to use. Can I get opinions from everyone? Plexiglas or sheet metal.

 

For the heat shield, use aluminum, hands down.

You can get sheets of it at homedepot.
