intake piping

i've been thinking about replacing the factory intake snorckle with a hard metal bigger intake piping. i already did the dump tube hack, just still want more and better throttle response. problem is... i don't feel like spending 150 on a hard injen pipe. i've looked around MachV and dsmparts, dsmtuners, not sure what exactly to get. will a 3" piping fit perfect on my stock setup T-25 and factory MAS fitting? or should i get a 2.5, or 2 1/4. what size is the factory intake snorckle. i just need a cheap way to do this. bettter if i can get it done under $80.

DIY! Save $80 and buy a used 14b :iceslolan:!

i've seen that link before, i'd much rather prefer to buy an already made pipe, much more durable and reliable that way. what do you guys think about this one.http://linux.forcedperformance.net/merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=FP&Product_Code=FPAIP&Category_Code=DSM-Intake

what kind of coupler do i need to fit on my stock T-25 setup.

T25 is 2 inches. 2gMAS is around 4 inches, but oval. Get a dejon with recirc tube. :)

agree, dejon tool intake pipe only runs about 40 bux

i am looking at the dejon intake tube that's $34 on their site. but it's only 2-1/4" tube tho. don't i want a bigger diameter tube like a 3"?

like i already mentioned, i already cleared up the space in my stock tube by doing the dump tube hack. will changing to this 2-1/4" tube make a differeice? joe you said the mas is 4" and T-25 is 2", then how big is the stock tubing. greater or smaller than 2-1/4"?

about 2'', a lot less with the dump tube... pop your hood, it's small as hell.

so i am guessing those 4" pipe i posted won't work then. even with its provided 4" to 3" coupler hookup.

i guess dejon it is then. another thing, what do you guys do with the 3 vacume lines pluged in to the intake. do you just leave it unpluged? i guess i can get a breather filter for the valve breather line but what about the other two. leaving the two openly unpluged might possibly let dust or bugs inside.

For what its worth, the POSr was durable and reliable enough for 430 whp, and 4 years of POSr abuse. I still have it, nothing wrong with it. Except it feelings are hurt from being called a pussy little non-reliable intake :D

:evillol: :evillol: i didn't mean it like that man!..

call me a pretty boy, i just like the shinny look of those manufactured pipes. :grinno: i know now the truth is out :screwy:

If you polish a dull pipe it gets shiny! I've seen some valve covers that if you go to work on them long enough with some power sanders and such they get chrome-like. I saw this intake pipe on DSMtuner classifieds if you're interested...

I offered him $50 shipped :D...don't think he'll be too happy about that, but you never know!

SHIT!... how come i didn't see that!!.. all the places i saw sell it for 199. i just ordered a dejon 2.75" pipe for over 100 bucks !!.. i ama go cry myself to bed.

joe. are you gonna buy it?.. cause if not... i want it. hit me back quick so i can cancel my order with dejon first thing in the morning. i do'nt wanna be a dick and cut in front of you. thanks

OK!.. dejontool guys are shady. i called them just now regarding my order from last night see if i could cancel it since Joe just told me about this good deal. mofo from the dejontool customer serive was hella shady, i asked him to check if my order's been shipped, this is what he said "ahhh... no.. i can't check it, " "why not"-i said "well.... ahhh.. you see... ahhh.... any order placed last night would be shipped out by now already" ......

is this shady or what. guy was just PURE SHADY. oh well... this damn pipe better be worth it. or iama go rampage !! :angryfire

He's the real slim shady, all the other slim shadys are just imitating ;)

Even though that guy may have sounded a bit shady, Dejon Tool as a company is not. I've never heard of any bad problems regarding them, so I think you can just brush that guy off as a goof that Dejon hired ;)

i have no doubt in dejon's quality. just the management quality is REAL shady. gotta work on that dejon.

just imagine if you call microsoft and ask them about windowsXP... and the customer support guy says... "WIN WHAT??!?//... ahh yeah.. it's good. "
