I was wondering if you guys with hsr or tpi could post up some pics of some air filter intake you have designed up.....i still have the factory, very restrictive one on my car and want to get rid of it and need some ideas before i fab one up....I know there are some other threads already out there, but would like to get a thread going with a bunch of pictures and any new ideas...thanks ahead of time......

This is mine. The only problem is I have to run a MAF so there is that break in it. It works nicely though and makes under my hood look good too.

hey strc09.......on firebird's I've notice the battery is on opposite side (camaro on passenger side).....where did they put the charcoal canister on firebird's (where your battery is on yours, is where my cruise controll and charcoal canister on a camaro)....just curious...

on my 84, the battery was originally on the passenger side and cruise control on the drivers side on the "tray". The air inlet hose was routed to the drivers side. On my 88 formula 350 parts car, the battery was on the drivers side along with the cruise control, which was mounted up high on the washer fluid bottle and the charcoal canister/ air filter were on the passenger side tray.

86irocu.. thats a bad a$$ set up man. i was thinking about doing something like that. but i think it would just be over kill since ive only got a v6. heres my set up tho..

hey bmfiroc-z where did you get that piping for the intake, and is it 3.5 or 4 inch.

86irocu · 05-01-2009, 10:13 PM

its alright, it works. that was my first time ever fiberglassing anything so its kind of crude. I was debating on redoing it. but I never seem to have time anymore.

matthama...you know that you are sucking hot air into your engine now, right. as opposed to the cold air intake theory...

does your MAF sensor wiring have enough slack to let you move it up that far? for some reason i feel that mines really short and wont allow that much movement, also whered you get the tubing, it looks like a real good setup
