Air Intake
Air Intake
Hey i'm looking into getting a new air intake. I don't want something that i have to drill through my car to put in. But i want it to sound cool, cooler. I saw a post where one dude said that it really roars. Any ideas? i like the sound more so than the sound of an exaust.
Thanks

If sound is all you want, then getting a midpipe and a cone filter will be perfect for you. I made my own midpipe, maf adapter and got a cheap cone filter all for about $35. There is no drilling required and I left all of the bottom part of my original air box.
It had a great roar, but I lost a lot of low end power so I took it off. I currently have just a popcharger setup and it has a light roar, but no where near what the midpipe added to it!

Cut a few panels off the bottom of your stock airbox. Takes 10 minutes tops, 1 minute with a dremel.
Before, 0 to 60 run: http://www.v6atlanta.com/vids/Stock_0_60.avi
After, 2nd gear hold at 3000-4000rpm: http://www.v6atlanta.com/vids/intake2.avi
After, slow turn, then downshift to 1st gear: http://www.v6atlanta.com/vids/intake1.avi
Makes a pretty big difference.
Those videos were before I put the WSP Y-Pipe on. Just two holes in my airbox.

I suggest going with the hacked air box like Scarface said if you don't want to spend any money. But if you aren't capable of doing that, go to my site (Natural Aspiration) or VQPower for the write-up on a Hot Air Intake.
jsut buy a drill but for metal it takes like a minete to cut the hole if you dont want low end lag i used to have a midpipe ( dryer venting crap from my work) lol and a cone filter it wsas loud but for some reason i have the loudest cai ive ever heard? when i went to race i had liek 30 people ask me how i got one so loud and i really dont know why but it sounds sick lol.
