Both are pointless and shit ideas. I tried the half metal half stock(the bigger end). According to Tao, this is a loss of 65rwkw from back to back tests he done. I made 244rwkw. Add 60rwkw you get 304rwkw from the SS2. Ive got it sorted now, full 3" metal just need a retune.

would be interesting to see if the intake pipe really restricts that much power alone from a intake pipe change. awaits your results with anticipation.

if i had time and could weld, i'd make a bunch of these metal intake pipes for you rb20/25 brothers out there.

If it sucks shut it restricts it massively, if it doesn't suck shut then it is fine.

any exhaust/performance car shop will make you one and install it for $200 max anyway so I don't know why people bother assing around trying to make their own etc.

Hanaldo just paid $400 for his intake pipe..lolz. Or was it 300?

With fittings for the bov and pcv connections from the stock piping? I highly doubt it.

Would love to see someone make them with the two connections (pcv and bov) and have it hook up to the factory airbox. I would buy that.

Ron picked it on this one. Get the silicone intake off ebay. Then add metal. This stops the silicone sucking in. The silicone internal is bigger then the o d of the 3inch pipe. Fits stock airbox and has bov return etc

I doubt u will make 60rwkw+ from a less restrictive intake pipe, thats more power than a granny corolla puts out at the wheels, anyways we will await your after-tune results..

Dude they already done back to back tests. check:

Check index.

The silicone ones I have seen the fittings are way off the standard locations, plus the turbo end is only 2.5". I fitted it in my R34 and the pod filter would not fit in the engine bay with the afm and pod bolted to it lol. I bought it from 888Autobahn or something from ebay. He gave me a refund but didnt really give me a reason.

i did the rev210 mod on my GTT, the metal pipe collapsed. Ok for standard, not ok in a high-flow, higher temp situation.

Chasers made me up a full metal intake from airbox to turbo.

Haha don't tempt me if only I had time. I cant see your intake causing a restriction at all. Plus the straighter the pipe better dose/flutter sounds

If your pipe is sucking closed you will make that much extra power, if it isn't then it won't really help much.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
