how do u think the shield looks? I did a temp probe test and it ran the same temp within +5 degrees of outside temperature even when engine was warm. SO it keep engine heat out perfect.

 

Instead of messing around with all this for a simple intake why not just get a good FMIC?

 

I've got the same aircraft tubing with my mod shack intake. But I didn't know of an easy way to route it, so I haven't installed it. Can you post more pics of how you routed these? Did you have to cut any metal? I would love to put these on, but need a little direction.

 

In order to run the full dual feed setup, you have to cut a bit out of one of the brackets that holds the left front fender. I used a dremel on the bracket, once you get things opened up, it's pretty easy to see where to make the cut. The other runs down and out under the battery. Take a look at my Fotki page for a few more pics. I think Schwing has some more details on his Fotki site as well.

 

I dunno if you were reading me right precisiontt, what I was saying was that 3" in front of my filter, I saw AT MAX, 15°F over whatever outside air temp was, as long as the car was moving. It was usually 10°, but if I got into a draft behind a truck, it would climb a few degrees.

So, if it was an 80° day, air entering my intake was about 90°, not 215°, unless the car was at a standstill, which it rarely is unless its parked.


And again, this is my setup.

 

^where the hell's ur battery?

 

oh you.

you'll grow to like em. try one!

 

My battery is in your base, killin your doods.


And by base, I mean trunk. (But its still killin your doods)

 

Your a strange bird aren't ya!! Jk!
Why did u move it?

 

Better for the battery (manage heat better), better weight distribution, makes room for the water/meth pump (you can see that where my battery was), and it looks cool.
