I have a 10th AE, and would like to keep it as stock looking as possible just for the sake of being sleeper. I have already modified the inside of the air box and it seems to have helped a little. But, my factory TID has a large rip in the bottom of it. Is there anyway to make an aftermarket TID that would work in its location? I was thinking 3" pipe, but the angles are so freaking tight in there with the airbox in place. Any ideas? Thanks

 

just get another one

 

Word, you could make it work, but it'd be alot of work just to keep the stock airbox.

 

you guys are right. So, today, i removed all that stock crap, and did a custom TID with a 3" 30 degree pipe and open filter. I will soon build an airbox around it to keep the IATs down, but DAMN! the car picked up so much power! Im running a 60-1 and i never realized it would be so choked! With this intake the car pulls soooo hard on boost, and it even gained a few PSI, not to mention it spools much quicker. Im so glad i did the TID. My idle still bounces though...but not nearly as much.
