    In 2007 when i had my first GTP i made my own air intake, i had a "S" shape 3.5" aluminum pipe and i put a filter at the end and i was really happy with it, now i cannot seem to find any similar shaped aluminum pipes for my current GTP, anyone know where i can get one? this is what it looked like, please dont mind the colors

    that either looks home made or a JMB intake that was cut.

    but to me it looks home made.

    Ya, Unless there is some no-name supplier that hasn't reached us yet, that is a home-made or shop made intake. Most come out with a 45*(ish) curve and just go toward the headlights. Unless you get a Fender Well Intake but those I don't think come in the 3.5" like that and they are much longer.

    A machine shop or exhaust shop with a mandrel pipe bender could possibly make you one if they had the 3.5" pipe but that would be up to them if they would do it and no telling how much they would charge for it.

    Besides that...you can buy a JMB Fenderwell intake...do a little cuttin' and lovin' and they work...or just slap a cone filter on the end of the TB for epic blower whine?

    Firstly, you are looking for an aluminum tube, not pipe. 4" is the best dia. 45* mandrel bend works well.

    These guys have phenomenal selection: Global Technology and Engineering

    Which is where I got mine.
