Had help from Dad and his welder. I suggest welding the pipes as it looks a thousand times better. If not you can use the the boots.

I feel your pain trying to find links or parts for my 3rd Gen. Have to fabricate.

Thanks again for the response.

Looks good, where did you get it? If I were you, Id get a hose & wire kit, it will give your engine a more appealing look. Also, get a new Valve Cover, I think a Grey Valve Cover would look good.. that Red one doesn't look too great. Is that Intake Cold air or no?

Hi Chris , I made it. The valve cover was painted when i changed the gasket, black texture paint on it was flaking badly, sandblasted cover and sprayed red. I will probably repaint it charcoal grey. I think that is what i wil spray the intake. I only removed the air box , not the resonater behind the bumper. did not have time to remove bumper and tear it all apart.

ps. Brew74 > you might have to take the side 1/4 panel off to access
some of the stock intake components. I was able to gut mine out by
just taking off the front bumper. Did you get a chance to check out
Red Pepper yet?

thanks for the support j. I registered at red pepper. I havent had a chance to dig in to it ,, as it has been pretty cold here. Snowed today. Hopefully i will be able to get into it this weekend.


I dont understand all the "hater" talk on these forums. We all like cars , i might not like what one person would do to his but if he/she is into it and is doing it on their own, more power to them.

I didnt paint the valve cover to rice it out, it needed to be painted anyway. It was off, my fiance's dad works at honda and had mentioned the red powdercoated covers they were selling for a few hundred dollars.
Just thought i would try it and see how it came out.
