intake filter question please helppp

[mcsddd]

i am in the process of making a basic air intake. Im having a problem connecting the filter to the pvc pipe. It connects but its not sturdy. I have a spectre air filter and 4" pvc pipe. can someone please tell me how to connect these? the part number of the filter is 8132. It says for use with 3" 3 1/2" and 4" systems please help.

Fenderwell Intake's suck...

That's what they're supposed to do.

That's what they're supposed to do.

but hai and sri suck so much you can hear em blow

[FuglyGTP]

does anyone have a dyno chart showing the difference between a hai, short ram, and fwi?

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

no charts, but someone did do the whole dyno thing on all of them and they are all the same, no different in performance

4" thin wall pvc is 4"i.d not o.d ran into same problem with a spectre filter as they wont stretch much. I said F it and bought a JMB Intake.

Umm, the open cone out performed all of them...I think you missed something.

I bought a JMB Intake.

I'm sorry.

[FuglyGTP]

The FWI, HAI, and short ram all use a cone intake. Does anyone have a link to the thread about this comparison?

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Umm, the open cone out performed all of them...I think you missed something. ?

I was just trying to get the point across that buying a fancy intake is a waste of money. And what was it like .5-1h hp different for the open cone.

[FuglyGTP]

open vs stock?

[Bio248]

stock is restrictive. think about it.

[blueguy]

No...I'm just pointing out that open cone is the cheapest and it yields the best power results along with beyond the best throttle response out of all of them.

[djrepoman]

Had a homemade 4" system ,but car show judges deduct points for PVC, So looks can be important as well

[SlowNA06]

Umm, the open cone out performed all of them...

Ah, no. I only tested a "CAI" Box and Open Cone intakes. I did not have a fenderwell intake to test. While the open cone seemed to (ever-so) slightly out-perform the box, the results of a fenderwell intake are yet unknown, as far as I know, as compared to them.
