so my brothers 01 max was totalled in an accident but his berk intake is still good. i was thinkin i could fit it into mine with a little bit larger hose that connects the the throttle body. would this be possible.? or could i use the apexi filter as like a pop charger. just wondering what my options are if any. any input is welcome. thanks

 

it can be done...my 00/01 berk is on my 02.

you will have to remove and cap the two nipples that are needed for vacuum hoses on the 3.0. you will just have the one large hose...not the small two.
i broke them off and used electrical tape.

its also harder to get the coupler on the MAF tube and the coupler on the throttle body...but it can be done.

 

hey sooner that support bracket you have attatched to your strut tower and MAF/MAF adapter.....where'd you get that from?

 

If I remember correctly I believe sooner made that mount...... could be wrong though.........

 

it fit? i thought because the throttle body on the 00 is considerably smaller, i thought it wouldn't.

but i guess im wrong.

 

he said it was pretty tight getting the coupler on the throttle body....it probably took some major stretching tho

 

couldnt i just order the hose that connects to the throttle body from berk for the 02/03? would the other end fit on the 01 midpipe?

also what about just using the apexi filter as a pop charger?

 

I'm not trying to thread jack you tbombs32 it just doesn't make sense to start another thread with basically the same question. I want to use my 95-96 Stillen hi-flo cone filter and velocity stack on my 03 with all the stock tubing. Will that work sooner? My bad tbombs if I stepped on your toes.

 

use the stock accordian piece instead of the silicon coupler...

 

o true never even thought of that. will that will fit the midpipe tho?

 

As long as you have the correct clamp, it will.

 

I have a 2001. and i only see 1 sensor spot. What did you do with the other one. I know one is is close to teh air metor, but what did you do witht he one closer to the TB? Doesnt it throw a cell?

 

I recently installed the Berk intake on my 03 and am trying to find/make a bracket like the one in soonerfan's picture. I don't understand why they don't provide one in the kit. I'm using a flimsy piece of galvanized pipe hanger temporarily, but looking for something more permanent.

Any ideas are appreciated.

 

looks like that support bracket is from a pop charger kit from stillen or JWT

 

it's very similar to the JWT if its not the same thing.. i oredered a whole JWT intake just to get that braket, so.. lol.. that probably sucked 4 me

 

Dang - How much did that run you? I think I'd prefer to not do that.

Anyone have suggestions for a bracket on the cheap? Someone has suggested a support bracket from the back of a car stereo - I might give that a shot...

 

i have a 2001 AE and when I ordered my intake from Berk it came with that bracket

 

take the old bracket that held the stock airbox near the strut tower and move it down by the battery. I've done this on a bunch of cars that I have sold intakes for. I used to have a btter picture but can't find it

 

go walk around home depot untill you see something that you can use lol

 

it was about 100 bucks... but i'm thinking if you have a piece of metal, and a tool to twist it with, you can just twist it until the holes line up

 

another alternative is to have some Zip ties and secure it that way. i done it for a little while and it holds up and its cheap haha.

 

Thanks to everyone for their input

I emailed JWT and they sold me the bracket by itself for $15 shipped. That seemed reasonable and it's quick and easy.

I wanted something that looked decent and didn't want to spend the time trying to find something similar or make something if I didn't have to.
