What can I use for a bracket that will attach the intake to the strut tower? I sure dont want to use a zip tie so is there a bracket that i can purchase somewhere. I am aware that i might have to twist it, but i need some direction in where i may get one. Thanks

 

What intake do you have? If you have the Frankencar, try calling them up and have a bracket sent to you.

 

yeah, i thought about doing that but im sure it would take about 6 months for them just to send a bracket to me. I have the Berk by the way!

 

Yeah, I left messages on every number on their site as well as emailing them repeatedly. 3 months and not a word back from them.

 

Thats why i purchased the Berk for less and recieved it in less than a week.

 

I have the bracket on my FCI and it makes a squeak everytime I accelerate. At least, I'm pretty sure that is whats making the noise. I never had that noise before the Intake. I've learned to live with it...

 

When I installed my frankencar, I simply used a backstrap from any stereo. It bendable by hand and has tons of holes for you to line up. I did it in less than a minute. I also used one of the rubber washer things from the stock airbox setup and placed that the strut tower and the bracket.

 

thanks for the tip and about how long does it need to be? 4 inches?

 

I really can't say. I know the brackets are about 6-8 inches long and it'll really depend on which mounting hole you use and how you bend it. Just get the backstrap and cut/bend whatver excess you have.
