I have a couple spectre short ram intake tubes (3" diameter) that I am thinking about hooking together to make a cold air intake(I need a 90 deg elbow). I would then need to reduce to 2.5" at the intake manifold.
I got them pretty cheap, will be close to price of an bay intake for an ST once I get a filter. Is this okay, or is it better to be same size all the way? Thanks! |

Go to your local autozone, I picked the spectre intake tubes up for $12 each on clearance(YMMV). I might go with an accord CAI though. I think Checkers/Kragen/Schucks is having the mid-size spectre filters for $20 right now? About $35 total for a SRI. The angle on the spectre SRI tube is actually really nice, would put filter right in the old filter box spot(cut to size). |
