mine pulls air in from behind the bumper through a pod filter.

check it out.

started out as an ebay 26 dollar elcheapo short ram with no heat shield.

and it turned into this.

this is where it connects. i used the elbow from the original kit.


this is where it goes into the fender.

kind of an overview


and this is what its made of. flexible exhaust tubing.


yes those are zip ties holding it in. i had to go rescue a buddy in his prelude so i just kind of rushed to get it back together. but tomorrow im making good brackets and im going to finish wrapping the pipe. the next layer is aluminum foil tape. now its miller time.

 

very nice...its in the fender well? hope it doesn't rain alot and get all kinda water sucked up in there!

 

its up high enough so that it shouldnt. i hope.

 

I like it man. I wanted to do something like this myself, but hadn't thought it out enough to figure out what to use. Keep posting pics as you move along!

 

my buddy did that in his gtp and he used some type of cover over the filter i beleive it KN that makes the cover

 

im making a cover for the bottom with a piece of rubber. that should keep it good and dry.

The black cover with the Airaid logo on it is "water proof" with no restriction as claimed by Airaid. Underneath is my oiled air filter.

It does a nice job keeping some larger particles out of the filter and when water does make it up through my intake tube, it just beads up on that prefilter and rolls off. It was $30, but well worth it IMO.

 

ooh i like that. i think i may have some material like that too... hmmm....

 

Its just a really fine screen .... nothing special. I guess I paid for the logo and custom fit.

 

this is what i was talking about
