Custom Air Intake
With new blower coming and the LPE 100mm MAF i'm going to need to make a custom intake tube to connect it all up to my Airaid cold air box. Do any of you guys have any ideas on this? I don't even know where to begin on a project like this. If you have a custom setup would you mind posting pics of yours? Also, where can i go online to purchase the tubing and the couplers, hardware, etc? thanks! What kind of materials should i use?

?? I dont know, I am still pissing with mine josh, trying to make the volant box work. My problem is that being my blower is off manifold I dont have much room on that side to come out of the air box and turn to get up to the blower. Especially with the MAF there, so my solution is ditch the MAF then it will work. Just waiting on the right 2bar map to show up.

FWIW carbon fiber comes in a variety of tube diameters (ie sailing applications) and could be used with elbows and couplers for a killer heat-resistant custom kit.
