wow! you built a rotary engine and all the accessories to make it run from just a coat hanger and electrical wall plate using some autozone parts and a torch? That is amazing!

Seriously, Intake looks good. Any leaks or ecu problems?

I just got an Apexi power intake kit for my 89 GTU and will be installing it this week. I also need a cone filter for my air pump, do you remember what size and auto zone part information you got for your filter?

I'm talking about the small cone filter on the rubber air intake for the air pump. Do you recall what you asked for on this filter? I guess I could take the rubber hose in and find a small filter that fits the ID of the hose.

because shipping is 14 bucks and that filter sucks ***.... never buy a filter like that because the top aluminum part is glued on and will fall off after the extreme heat of a rotary gets to it... then once if falls off you will be sucking in unfiltered air
