I've looked on www.rx7.com (Rotary Performance) and all they sell for N/A's is the filter and adapter. I want an actual cold air intake with the hardpipe and filter but can't find one. My brother told me that the K&N Typhoon was about $350 so thats out of the question. I just need a little more power on a low budget so if anyone knows of a place that sells good N/A FC CAI's, I would really appreciate it if you post a link.

BTW: I really like the AEM V2 and Iceman peices so if they exist for this application I'd like to know because I suck at the internet and can't find crap.

yea i know, i cant find any makers for a cai kit for fc's. I heard that you can make one from piping from a integra cai kit but i dont want to do that.

 

what about Santiago, he used to have one for sale......and dyno proven reulsts

 

I've got the one from Rotary performance, had it for a while, very noticeable top-end performance increases, not much in the lower ranges though. CAI's are overrated- you still have to deal with the heat-soaked upper and lower manifolds to get the air to the engine, what's the point of just "insulating" the first 1/3 of the intake ducting? As long as you install some form of baffling for the cone filter, so you're not sucking in primarily the engine bay air, and allow some form of ingress for the outside air to get to the filter, you've accomplished your goals...And you don't need a bunch of fancy ducting to accomplish that...

 

Home depot.

 

yeah I just got a cold air intake setup for a 92 prelude for like 30 bucks witch has all the piping etc.. and then I'll cut the tubing for the rex

 

You want the show & the go huh, well I don't beleive there is one, made for the FC. Sorry, but CAI's are a rip-off.

 

santigo?

 

how can cold air going into your intake instead of the hot temps of the engine bay be a rip off???? Your carzy man!

 

seems the 92-ish prelude intake is pretty well-suited, and pretty cheap eBay wise

santiago = 1987RX7guy

 

K&N Universal Filter - $45

Hose Clamp - $2

Not spending way too much money and doing something yourself - priceless

 

i am trying to develop an aewsome cai for the fc and fb maybe fd. i will have the one for the fc soon and will sell them reasonably. i'll let you know

 

...and you will charge $200, people will say they are interested, but in the end, you will sell 3.

 

im waiting for my prelude intake to come in the mail

 

I never dyno'ed mine. lol I did do magnehelic and temp tests though. Both tests indicated my CAI was superior to the stock crap.

If there is interest I am willing to make some otherwise make your own.

 

i am gonna try and keep it at 100 or less actually, i'll kepp you posted

 

most likely i will only make one for the fc though. i am the kind of guy that believes i can make more money selling things cheapely than everyone else. if they are making a $50 profit i will be fine with 25 or so. sell more that way and make more eventually

 

lmao... damn someone beat me to it.

 

I made my own out of a K&N filter and prelude CAI piping kit off ebay.

 

any cutting involved or pretty much fit with no midification?

 

gotta cut

 

hey koukifc I just got that cai for the 92 prelude and was planning on doing this fairly soon, what did you use to cut it? I was thinking a hack saw or something. Any pics??? Did you go through the wiper bottle place???? Thanks.

 

i didnt receive my kit yet. I was also thinking of using a hack saw to cut it. Im gonna take out my windshield washer bottle since I never use it.

I'll take pics when im done, prolly next week.

 

3.5" Hole saw... Works like a charm.
