hey guys, i was wondering, i have the stock 3sgte intake and right now my battery barely fits with the intake and the intake is bent/wedged up against the battery kind of at like a 45 degree angle, i really dont like all that pressure.

the only non stock intake i remember is bboys, i hope you post bboy haha, im not sure how yours works since i tried to put a 90 degree intercooler bend on it and it was smaller than the turbo intake port, what is the size of that, 3"?

anyways guys, post what you have done or what you have seen, i guess the other option is relocating the battery to the trunk but i dont know that i wanna do that.

thanks

Check my profile for a pic of mine.

i really like that, could you explain a little more about it and the parts used?

thats the stock st185 intake.

problem with yours is that you have the mr2 intake, that dosnt fit right in our cars

that explains a lot ... boy im just asking a bunch of dumb questions this weekend

i guess ill see if i can buy one of those.. or if bboy posts and that looks cheaper ill use his design

you could check my profile too, its a k&n FIPK air filter.

here u go



i just used a 90 degree bend, and yah u need a 3" to (whatever piping size ur using)" silicone reducer for both the turbo side and the afm side. for the filter just grab a 3" adapter plate and use an aftermarket cone filter.

This is my current set-up...



Not ideal, but will suffice for now.

Nice, but I wonder - when I have put Short Ram in exactly the same place in my GT it was sucking hot air from the engine bay and was no improvement at all, even worse than stock. Does yours work better than original intake in terms of torque? On the other hand - I want such IC cover!!! Where can I get one?
