I going 2 make my own version in 3" stainless pipe tomz, im modding the standard air box and running a cold air feed 2 it!
I not sure if im going 2 make it in one complete pipe or should i join it in the middle with hump hose, so it will have a bit of flex like! will see how it works
I modified my airbox today and made a custom pipe from the airbox to the throttle body!
I was going 2 make it out of one stainless piece, but i spoke 2 a few people and they told me 2 join it in the middle with some flexi pipe for some flex, so i decides 2 get a hump hose!
Here a few pics, i will right up what i did in another thread in a few days
Cheers people looks a lot better than the topfuel that i had on!
Since iv done it the car goes a hell of a lot better, doesn't hesitate like it used 2, just touch the throttle and it just wants 2 go a lot better throttle response. It also pulls better all the way through the rev range and pulls a lot harder when it crosses over 2 vtec, you can feel that it gained a bit of power and torque
The only down side with it, is that iv lost the sound it used 2 make, it used 2 sound awesome when you put your food down and go crazy when it goes into vtec, with the topfuel on, but know you cant hear it, lost it growl if you know what i mean.
That setup with the stock airbox looks real good Cardi. Have you posted up how you did it yet? You weld the bracket and breather tube on yourself? Sure you'd have a market for them if you made a couple of kits up

Cheers mate! i need 2 do a how 2 thread, i will try and do it in the next week when iv got some spare time, just wished i toke more photos now Im a welder by trade so welding the breather pipe and brackets isn't a problem like!
I have been thinking about making a couple, but don't know if i can be bothers with the hassle if they don't fit (it was a fiddle 2 line everything up, and i needed 2 tweak quite a few thing 2 get it 2 work) If I do make them they wont be cheap because by the time you get hold of everything (stainless bends, silicon houses etc etc) it just adds up, think iv spent over £100+ on my one so it not a cheap mod if you compare it 2 a short intake, like the fake j's you can get on ebay for £120
