anyone made there own home made intake lately, ive been looking for pics if anyone has some. If not does anyone know a good system put in other them the super expensive ones.

The air filter my car came with was pretty much standard other than the filter had been changed with a K&N replacement and half a dozen holes drilled in the bottom of the box... makes a similar noise to an induction kit

yah the dood b4 me took out the whole freakin bottom of the box, now my check engine light is on all the time, not sure if yours is doing that or not. But i know my car is damn loud, and i still have the stock muffler on it. If i do make one my self i just don't know where all the sensors go cause i don't have any pics to go by.

Thanks for the Linke David, the only problem is all the pictures that i need are dead links.

Sure thing, I made mine out of a Ractive Heat Shield filter and a bendable dryer tube that goes down into the fender well. I didn't even need a MAF adapter because I have a 95 and the MAF is a standard 3" circle. Check it out and let me know if you have any questions. The CAI is about 2/3 of the way down this page.<p>http://www.msu.edu/~leonar40/Car.html

Looks good, how much did the filter cost you?

Heres a post to my old intake install pics, and instructions to! Hope this helps! I really felt a difference and to all you peeps who think water can get sucked up like mad, I think Ive disproven that, Ive drove through the hardest rain of the year and no problems.<p>My intake pics.<p>Feel free to ask me questions.

Even if you did get rain sucked in, just get a bypass valve to go on the intake, this will prevent hydro-locking.

Hey man thanx, thats exactly what i was looking to do, i just want to know where all the sensors go, and where you got the aluminum piping for that, and the connectors and the coupling. Can you find them anywhere or did you have to go to a shop?

The filter was $40 including shipping, and the dryer tube was free because I had an extra one laying around.

the piping was cut from a civic intake, you can find any old filter for like 20 bucks, the civic intake was 50 bucks, and I cut it to fit in our sensor.

is it a factory civic intake or an after market intake tube, and what about the sensors?? how do they fit back into the pipe if you took out all the other stuff.

I cut the civic aftermarket intake in 2 parts then took our sensor and put it in between the cut piping. Its really simple just use basic knowledge and cut it, just fit the sensor on the intake somewhere and you'll be fine it dont matter where it is

Thanx for all the insight dood, but as you can tell, when i comes to cars i don't have too much common knowledge :p . Ill hafta give it a try.
