Default My new homemade CRX intake *pics*

Well it started out as buying an HKS-style filter from ebay for like $15. Then, I took a ride over to the local mandrel bent shop and snatched some scrap piping from the back. I found a bend that fit perfect! It wa actually off a GM muffler. I painted it black and called it a day! Here are the pics:



Here's an engine shot. I still haven't finished polishing off the valve cover yet. My dremel failed me the other day.

damn looks good.. most ppl pay over $100 for that sort of intake I beleive.

it'll be nice to have access to that shop once you're looking for all that i/c piping.

Why didn't you make a whole intake to get rid of the rubber intake hose??
