Air Intake - Page 2

In hazmat's picture, can anyone tell me what the two blue hoses (just above the 90 degree elbow) connect to? Stock, they're connected to a black box thing, where do you reroute them to? And what are they?

vacuum tubes, and they just reconnect to the intake tube, there are spots for it. Same as the red tubes in the pic from Cosmo Racing

I probably wouldn't have done my super deluxe ghetto WAI if I knew that box could come off. Thanks Hazmat.

There is a web site that sells the slicone elbows, but I do not know the name of it.

Google it

Man if ur gunna do an intake do it right! COSMO I've had mani over a year and not one single complaint I love mine

AleroDrime · 02-23-2009, 08:08 PM

if i got the cheap one and fashioned my own elbow or found one, wouldnt it have the same effect?

[ion] C2 · 02-23-2009, 08:18 PM

yup.. it's just 3" aluminum tubing and a filter. plus some silicone vacuum hoses and a 90 degree 3" silicone bend.

AbHeLlRaZoR · 02-23-2009, 08:19 PM

is that sarcasm to me calling it the same for what

[ion] C2 · 02-23-2009, 08:26 PM

God damn man, no, it's not sarcasm. Grow a pair and shut the eff up about stupid shit like this.

I'm just telling you that's all it is, it's nothing to pay out the ass for. Custom or company made, it's no difference.

I second that.

I got my CAI from chromeintakes on ebay...how do you know if a CAI is crap or not? I paid like 50 bucks for mine and was told it does not matter that much bc anything is better than stock. Now you guys have me worried that I got the wrong intake...

[ion] C2 · 02-23-2009, 08:42 PM

it's the filter that's of most concern. i've had eBay filters fall apart in pieces. not a good thing to be sucking in.

AleroDrime · 02-23-2009, 08:50 PM

cool, i just suck at telling sarcasm from advice, my girlfriend takes advantage of this

AbHeLlRaZoR · 02-23-2009, 08:52 PM

with intakes you could likely get away with using PVC piping and a cone filter but that would just be a ricer mod therefore being a waste of money and time lol

AleroDrime · 02-24-2009, 12:14 PM

ok get the cheap one, silicone elbow and rig and a k&N or engine on and im straight, think thats what ill do

isnt the alero olds attemp at competing with the ricer market? osv concept?
