Default Custom 4" TVS Intake done

Couple other people have done the same and this is my twist on it. I am happy with it, the magnacharger one is nice but since I am SD It wasnt optimal cuz I dont run a MAF. Its all 4" and I put a fitting on the bottom out of site for my fresh air source for PCV. Just figured i would put up some pics incase other were thinking of doing it so they could get Ideas.





The pictures are not the clearest, Ill have to get some better ones with my camera.

Once the weather breaks I am going to do some logs with this inlet and the maggie one to see if there is any difference in boost KPA.

I will be doing the same with help from a member here who's providing parts including a 100mm MAF. Nice work.

I think that slight bend up followed by the slight bend down is going to create lots of air flow problems. Maybe you should scap the whole project and start over......or maybe it looks like you did an excellent job, it looks clean, and you should receive mass attaboys. Me thinks the latter. Good job

Well it doesn't have as much of a bend as the maggie tube. With it being 4" with smooth bends I doubt airflow will suffer. lol. Thanks for the compliment, I think....
