    Default I got creative :)

    I've wanted a cold air type intake for a while but I have long route piping so the hole for the stock uicp is taken. I went out and rearanged my piping a bit and got creative. Looks like this will work well to get some intake air that's no super heated in the engine bay. It goes over/around the lower rad pipe then under the coolant res and the filter sits below my FMIC pipe behind the bumper. I just need to make a little plastic cover for the bottom so dirt, water, whatever doen't hit the filter and probably a little shield over the front so nothing comes through the vent in the bumper either. It looks like a snake maze in the picture but I just used the two bends I already had for my old intake and added about a 25 bend at the bottom and it's not all that bad. There's no 90 degree bend like when using the uicp hole to route the pipe down there. It'll be tricky with a 3" pipe though, I don't know if I can make it work :? It's just a 2.5" now. I like it though!!! Thought I'd share :)

    Hey it looks good, and at least you have something to be proud about.


    P.S.
    Whatever works.
