i made a velocity stack intake. i got the velocity stack at http://www.summitracing.com its made by RS akimoto. the pipe there is a cut section of "hooker" exhaust piping. pipe size is 2 1/2" pics arnt too great, because there from a webcam. painted with BBQ grill paint from homedepot. im waiting for my pipe coupler to come in the mail so i can give this intake a try. so, enjoy?

 

looks very good

 

Dude, Home Depot BBQ paint is AWESOME I Love that crap. O yea intake coming along nicely 2. Keep us updated homie Lam.

Is that BBQ paint like a wrinkle paint?Nice job by the way.

 

the BBQ paint is flat like 2000grit sand paper. im not sure how wrinkle paint feels like.

stacks up velocity duh.

basically rams air into the intake.

 

Just need to figure out how to filter that.... I'm too paranoid to run without a filter. Anyone think it'd be worth it to replace your stock resonator with a cold-air velocity stack leading into the stock airbox?

its for track use only

 

well i was thinking of a screen filter.

cap it around the end of the pipe, insert the pipe coupler, then stick on the velocity stack end. just to block out chucks of junk. or cut up a K&N factory air box style filter and just flat it out and use it instead of the screen.

but those are just ideas for now.

 

filters are over rated!

 

that looks really good for being homemade. awesome job

 

looks good...i want one for myself..haha

I have the same velocity stack, but I just use a 2 1/2" rubber pipe connector to put it on the end of my CAI at the track.

I use mesh screen and foam as a filter.

If you are to go to a hardware store, you should be able to find foam air filters designed for A/C units. Its pretty cheap stuff. I basicly wrapped the screen first and the foam around it afterwards. (That way there is less likely of any foam coming loose and getting sucked into the intake.. but I don't see that happening anyways).

The idea is simmilar to foam filters like comptech use's for their shortram/icebox.

 

thanks for the heads up styleTEG

 

Try using Panty hose to filter it.


I sure hope it works...I've seen bad results on a dyno from removing the airbox completely and not running a filter. I'm not saying what you're doing wont work, just saying I hope it all goes well.
