Cosmo Cold Air
 
ok guys i cleared my corners and im feeling like a big boy now.

So....

I WANT A COLD AIR.

is there some where i need to purchase the extra piping or should i just get that diy mess from autozone

how do you get to the front bumper and fender area to get the stock duct out of the way. (im praying for someone to have pics on this)

This is the how to for the 2.4. Im thinking the eco should pretty much be the same.

yeah... you turn the wheel to the right all the way and pull the fender liner off, then you can rip apart the stock plastic shit in the fenderwell.

That's what I do with mine when I go to the track.

4 bolts under the bumper, 2 on the body behind the wheel, one up top.

3 body pins as well. remove headlight and push from inside the fenderliner ;)

lol so lost got to do some looking tomorrow but should i get the pipe from autodrime?


also im lost on that bottom paragraph on the how to make/install a cai

heineck 08-04-2009 12:27 AM

nah that autozone shits plastic and super gay. My buddy used that stuff and no offence, we all dubbed him Corrolla Racing after that, just buy a V6 CAI and a coupler, thats it. once u see it itll make sense. and just a heads up that lower stock box is a PITA

AleroDrime 08-04-2009 12:51 AM

then i wondering if i can pull this off with 50 bucks, i guess i cant

AleroDrime 08-04-2009 01:44 PM

QFT all that extra plastic for nothing

AleroDrime 08-05-2009 01:06 AM

fyi if anyones got an extra cosmo pipe then ill buy it for a fair price

KenshinZero 08-05-2009 01:12 AM

that lower box was by far the bigest PITA, I made the mistake of takeing it on after working 20+ houres and only getting 3 houres of sleep, I thought it would be easy as eating pie, but it was more like eating pie with razorblades in it.

AleroDrime 08-05-2009 01:29 AM

hardest part for me is affording the extra pipe i think

KenshinZero 08-05-2009 01:40 AM

you could always go the PVC rout, lol

i dont think a cosmos gunna work, and considering that a v6 CAI is only 65 i doubt anyones gunna hand u a cosmo for less than that,
if u dont have the cash dont mod
No point goin on about how u dont have the cash

AleroDrime 08-05-2009 02:37 AM

heineck 08-05-2009 04:14 AM

u paid sum1 300 to do ur eibachs? theres a how to on here! regardless if ur so concerned quit spendin money on mods, it makes no sense

KenshinZero 08-05-2009 07:19 AM

There wouldnt be a down side to a pvc cai, other than how goofy it would be. If you paint it, it wouldnt look too bad, personally I wouldnt do it, I would find some metal tubing and fab something up, or go to autozone and get that flex tube stuff.

it's just a 90 degree aluminum bend out of whatever OD you're using for the other stuff, and a straight silicone coupler.
