Intake pipe - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

This is exactly what I want. Simple and elegant yet (hopefully) functional and no CEL's or MAF misreadings.

Yes, this is all after the maf. Its the same size as stock and same routing. I like the stock intake and plan on keeping it. Not worried about heat soak because the pipe is so short and the air in there doesnt stay long enough to get hot. Most aftermarket intakes are aluminum. I do plan on adding a apexi filter and getting it tuned. It does growl a bit and I dont know if its a placebo effect but throttle response seems better. I also did the tb coolant bypass but i doubt that does anything.

The engine can adjust using other sensors but with the complex D4-S and high compression I would personally be concerned. Also the fact that the spark plug change interval is so low tells me you don't want to mess with the air fuel mixture as it already seems like a very sensitive thing. But I am no expert and I am often overly cautious when it comes to stuff like this so don't take my word for it.

Those intakes make changes around and before the MAF. This is after the MAF. The only way for energy to travel upstream to disrupt airflow around the MAF would have to be some sort of resonance. But all of the stock resonators are still in place.

Looks much cleaner! Nice and simple, thanks for sharing!

Clean looking! If you can record the sound would be great.

I was going to do something similar with 3" silicone brake duct hose as I've done before with my Integra, but you've made me want to try this out; I just ordered the parts to prototype a similar setup. Had to go with 2 different vendors (Silicone Intake Systems and Votion Speed) because the stainless silicone joiner wasn't available from Silicone Intake (out of stock). Total Cost ~ $100 ($21 of that shipping). Once I get it in and assembled I will post pictures and video. Should look really clean with the stainless T-Bolt's, no metal joiner exposed at all, and Silicone Intake's custom Silicone Port System for connection to the stock breather hose.

Wanted to go with blue silicone but they were out of the 3" 90-degree elbows, so black silicone it is...

86design · 07-15-2012, 01:45 AM

where did you get those hoses ?

looks good

chadz · 07-15-2012, 02:52 PM

Heres a quick clip [ame]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2qHtmHYBC8I[/ame]. Car's running good. Drove about 200 miles and no CEL. I got the hoses from ebay. Vracer, looking forward to yor setup. Keep me posted and thanks for the comments.

Can you make the video public?

chadz · 07-15-2012, 07:23 PM

Sorry about that. Its public now. Ignore the girl in the background lol. I will try to kake a better vid.

White64Goat · 07-15-2012, 07:36 PM

A specific list of the vendors on e-Bay from whom you bought all your items from would be especially helpful and what each supplied (part numbers would be a plus too). Thanks

Your set-up looks really nice, clean and hopefully foolproof. (No CEL's etc.)

xcelir8brz · 07-15-2012, 08:23 PM

Thanks.

Working on a kit of my own. Should have parts by weeks end in which next weekend I'll fabricate at least two variations. I think I should have something together that will rock. R&D baby!

chadz · 07-16-2012, 02:03 PM

I got the hoses from this vendor. http://myworld.ebay.com/boomautoparts/ but any 3inch 90 degree elbow and coupler will work. You just have to cut it to fit. The pipe, I got done from a local shop Wired in Linden, NJ. Vendors will probably come out soon. I know AVO has one but it still retains the sound tube. Good luck xcelir8. Please post pics and video when you're done
