I had a few requests of how I had my set up for my cowl induction so Im going to just put them onhere incase anyone else wanted to see, I didnt get my gaskets in friday (thanks to UPS) so I just placed the intake where its supposed to go, but Im sure you guys will get the idea. I took the front piece (directly off the throttle body) from the paxton I have, but Im working on making one out of fiberglass, and when I get it complete Ill overlay the whole thing with carbon fiber for a custom cool look, the air cleaner is just a piece of plexy glass that I took a propane torch to and heated gradually and rolled the corners arount a piece of the 3" aluminized exhaust pipe I am using in a few places.

 

not sure how to do more than one pic so here it is from the side

 

I think the 97 or so SS hood scoop stuff would be nice w/ a 4th gen camaro SS scoop molded into a Monte hood.

If you have a Paxton, why are you doing a hood induction scoop?

 

"If you have a Paxton, why are you doing a hood induction scoop? "

I had it feed off the cowl to the paxton, made a cleaner compartment when it worked but didnt like the paxton so just used what I had to bypass it all. Thought about the camaro SS set up but its reversed (sucks the air off the front of the hood) and by time I turned everything around to pull off the back I dont think that the bend would have cleared the AC pump, Besides with the KNN filter right now I have about $100 into it(that is if I would have had to pay for the filter, got a good deal on it!!)

 

I'm thinking you have quite a bit of vacume leak there judging by the gap where your runners and plannum meet

Serriously, it looks good. Did you notice any difference?

hahaha yeah vacuum leaks-R-us would be this situation, that problem will hopefully be remidied this weekend since I got my gaskets in, as far as any gains, its hard to tell I did that when I rebuilt the engine last year it was an all in one thing it seems no one ever makes one modification at a time to try to see what differences it makes, I know I dont, I did it more just to make the hood functional I was using it to eliminate the possibility of cooling problems with getting air forced the wrong way, seems to have helped in that dept, but could have also helped since I was getting cold air instead of semi cold air out of the engine compartment, I had a tube that went behind the headlights, but it wasnt sealed off so there isnt any telling how much cold air I was actually getting.

 

HEy, nice looking TPI

 

thought you might like that bob, got the gaskets monday and hopefully will have it all together friday night!

 

i'm going to hook up an intake set up like that for my turno. Gonmna use one of those daytonea turbo hoods. Spin some go<x>ddamn wheels too man
