or...... show us all how to make these B)

go to autozone.

buy:

-spectre 45 degree elbow with two couplers $20

-buy K&N filter $20

go to lowe's or home depot:

Buy:

-sheet of aluminum

From there all you have to do is take metal sheers and cut out a piece like mine with tabs at the bottom for the bolt to hold it down. Take a dremel and cut out a good sized circle for the elbow to go through it. You might have to cut the 45 degree elbow just a little bit shorter to make it fit. But thats all I did

cheap project...thats what I like...very nice work +1! but function and I know it's NA,the air is being sucked from where?

Mostly in the engine compartment, the heatshield is used to block off some of the heated air although i used it mostly for looks lol. I fed a ram air tube from the lower bumper grille to the bottom of the filter for more flow.

Although this was mostly for cosmetic purposes I love the sound it makes when you are accelerating with the windows up or down you can hear it sucking in air.

wow, you made the stock design worse. You don't want to suck up engine bay air, you failed very hard. These guys that do this and think their car is faster and cooler are silly. This is how its done, under 50 as well (k'n was the bulk, 4in dryer ducting from hd).

actually if he could use the elevations of IPD to seal it up against the hood all he would have to do is use the same dryer hose as you did and its not a fail. Im sending you a PM duder

Does the EST intake kit seal with the hood as well?
