i was thinking about making my own cold air intake kit out of pvc so i could route it where i want it, but i also want to fibergalss it so it dosent look like everyone elses, i didnt know if the heat from the engine bay would ruin the fiberglass though. just wondering if anyone has done this yet.

sounds good. concerning your sig. dont waste your money on the TB spacer

 

[norcalextreme]

not that much of an improvement?

 

[B'BallZ]

no improvement at all just a whistling sound

 

[norcalextreme]

As for your future engine mods, I wouldn't consider any of them.

Pacesetter is crap, look into Al's header,
I have heard bad things about venom 400,

Look into a larger TB, exhaust, e-fan, cam, and header

i wouldnt say much with the cam... havent seen anybody pull it off yet.

I noticed a little bit of diff with the throttle body spacer, but I wouldn't buy it again......I actually sold it....Don't even look at a header, look at a turbo manifold, and mount a turbo on the thing, thats about the only way to get power out of these motors.

PVC is bad for this application.

PVC is bad for this application.

Care to give reasons for that?

 

[mustard_madman]

I have seen people using PVC, but I would think maybe the exhaust manifold heat would melt it, i guess maybe not. Try it out, its cheap to start with, an d if you dont like it, try again

 

[Zq-8_dawg]

Intresting how the K&N and Volant are plastic, so why would PVC melt before plastic? I have seen several people using PVC, it is all how you design it.

 

[CustomS10]

why don't u make it out of PVC then go to a shop and have it made from aluminum

better yet just buy my volant intake and jet chip

 

[SummerWolf]

true.....that is the best idea right there!!!! and the volant is a good intake!! I had it and the K&N and honestly noticed no difference.....

and honestly......I think everyone that has a turbo 2.2 here its there daily driver

i have thought about once i get the kit made from pvc i should just get it made out of aluminum, i know a guy who has a pipe bender, and he makes all kinds of crazy shit.
