i know the 3" pipe feeding the 4" inlet of the turbo isn't exactly hot ****, but it's only at 8psi and it runs on 87 octane...i'll let it slide until i get ambitious enough to build a custom box.
and before it's even mentioned...no, i'm not using that filter. i have a k&n drop-in, but why bother opening it up just for the test-fit?

neat idea...best use of that hood that I've seen, but it's an eye sore under it, and doesn't look extremely efficient. Looks like only the back half of the filter is seeing fresh air.
when you make the custom box...I'd use a 4" K&N round filter and have that opening in the hood fill the box that it's in with fresh air.

Looks interesting, I'd like to hear how it affects intake air temps. Are you planning to use foam to seal it, like the M2 intake box?
Why run it on 87 octane?...
1) $.20 cheaper per gallon
2) everyone whines and says it can't be done. well i'm doing it, so there

so what's compressing the air before the turbo?? the 3" pipe into the 4" inlet??
efficient in the sense it looked like only half of the filter is exposed to the opening...
don't worry you don't have to respond to me I'm done posting in your threads.

i don't hate you at all--you just talk out of your *** a lot and are wrong too much of the time for me to take you seriously.
things like it looks like only half the filter is exposed.... dood, it's the camera angle. if you can't figure that out, just don't comment on it.
or your leading coils firing 42,000 times a minute at 7k rpm.

radiator hoses i got at the local performance shop. the hose ends got crusty real quick, so i swapped them out with the HTS couplers. about a year on them and they're still fine. the downside is they're really hard to clean in between the creases unless you take them off.
the good side is they're the last set of radiator hoses i'll have to buy....ever.
