Why waste your money on a part you could make for 1/4 of the price?

Because I can't stand ghetto mods on my own car

I rather pay the extra couple bucks to know I'm getting a quality product that looks good

I might have one just custom made...

go to autozone, buy a 3" intake kit for a honda, and cut it down. 45degree bend is perfect

No it isnt, unless you want to mount your AFM vertically. You need two 90 or two 45 degree bends in the piping.

Do you know how much that runs?
I would think it being HKS would be a little pricey.

You guys shouldn't be so judgmental on homeade TIDs, I've seen some very nice ones done with mandrel bent tubes and K&N filters.

Not PVC and paper "ricer cones".....

so get two pipes from autozone cut them down and get a rubber coupling from homedepot. total cost will be about 10 dollars and you'll see the exact some hp numbers

I made my TID out of alum. steel from an exhuast shop...they gave it to me for free. I had to buy some couplings, the k2rd afm adapter, a cone filter, and put a check valve on the stock bov. Total cost...maybe 40 bucks.

Chris Sanders was selling some polished units, that were really nice. I wouldn't pay anything over $100 for that thing. But i KNOW it won't be that cheap.
