Thread: First mod today!

hey guys i just put in my first mod on my GT. I went and made my self a home made intake.



I just ran some PVC from the stock piece to a cone filter. Sounds mean. but anyway should i be fine with the PVC or will it not withstand the heat of being in the engine bay?

The pvc will be fine, unless you paint it. You still left that restrictive tubing btw.

*and the addiction sets in*

Finally a DIY'er LOL

Read my thread yet? If not check out the Safely Modding Your 3800 thread in the General Tech section.

and check out the 871819289 other intake threads for any further questions or tweeking if your interested

Yup I went in and did it myself. Would I really get a difference if I removed that stock tubing?

Probably so. That is the restrictive part...not the airbox.

So your saying he would notice a difference?

its for flow increase, not power gain

And at the correct direction too...when air hits that stupid rubber elbow it goes everywhere in all bunch of directions...with a straight piece...one direction...correct flowing air.

so it sound like i need to ditch the stocker bellows haha
