wha hill you livin on in chaguanas bro ?
the CAI is relatively easy to make. depends on how diy you are. you'll need to buy pipe couplers hose clips and some slight welding to make the bolting points. what you will need some pro help for is the MAF adaptor. there is one available online but its 3" diameter which i think is too big. |

The inserts were wet sanded with 400 paper to get the silver off. Real pain for the corners.
Painted with textured plastic paint so no primer required - semi gloss black
Only thought about gloves after i got the paint on my hands
Coated and re coated then reassembled after drying.
Here's the finished product after re-baking to seal glue
Will take some "after" pics when back on the car. |
