Custom made cold air intake :D

O.k. so I got this crazy idea to make something of my car. Well I took the plastic bubble that's underneath bumper. You know that big black thing that's "supposed" to draw in air. Well I removed that and stuck a cardboard box that sort of hangs down. If you look in my illustration I have the cardboard box hang down so it will draw all the air and shoot it up into the rubber elbow then into the air box. Sort of a ghetto ram air but not :D The cardboard test worked good but it's raining right now so it kind of ruined it. But I'm in the works of makin a plastic one.


Here's the pic:

If this doesn't work then to hell with it. Just use your imagination :D


Jameson

Sounds cool! Probably doesent work better than a sock thoe!

:hehehe: I'm too lazy to use my imagination though.

Alright I know people post pics on here all the time. Who hosts pics on here? And it works better than a sock and Theo just think really really hard and maybe you'll fart out an image in your head :D

Jameson

Here ya go. I copied and pasted the first link, right-clicked the pic, copied the addy for it and then deleted the .orig.jpg off the end :D

Thank you so much lol Well that's what it generally looks like. I'll post up pics of the final project when I borrow the digi cam. Ghetto ram air :D

Jameson

someone wanted to see a pic of my friends set up. It is kinda like that except he kept the stock lower piece and just cut a hole on the bottom of it and screwed a little air vent under the car..so yeah kinda like a ram air!;)

Ask him if he feels any power increase. I tried to make a few laps but the rain held me back :(
