I bet that's one lean burning celica... those scratches by the headlight bezel make me cry...

Re: WTF?! Look at this plastic Intake

the PVC one wouldn't look to bad of they just painted the thing flat black. the bends dont look serious enough to effect the flow, so if they dont make a CAI for your car, you go with what you can. I've seen someone using that flexable dryer duct hosing for one too.

Well, I'm sure that they don't make any that go where the headlight is supposed to go. Plus he should get the front of the intake sealed off, i mean someone could just take a leak in there, and his whole engine would be screwed.

isnt it bad to have pvc tubes as intakes bc of the fumes it lets off when it heats up?

in both my BMW and my lexus, the factory stock intake comes down to the front. I've driven both in rain so hard that I couldn't see through the water going 20 mph on the freeway with the wipers on full.

i made a cai out of pvc before, then got a real one and unforchanitly some dumbass stole my pipes. i was swappin the motor at the time and most of the parts you remove where in the car anyway they do work just fine and its practically free to make one, i dont think they ever get hot enough to smell. Yes i know this one sucks but its only untill i recive my oil feed fitting and bov

you motor wont really suck up water unless the filter is fully submerged in water.
