Hey 933005spd look in the gallery and check out Geoff Peters custom intake piping on his SC!!!

I think he has what you need until you find the idea aluminum piping....

Geoff great job!!! Send me the directions... The_Ikon1911@yahoo.com

If not post info and pics in the "Engine/transmission section" in this forum!!! All you need now is one of "933005spd" heat shield boxes!

Damn good job!!!

The Ikon

Yeah, it is really nice. Have you noticed the gains we'd expect from it?

Nice coupe color.

 

I wonder where he got that piping? I can find the coupling and vacuum lines. I e-mailed him too, about the details of the intake... Hopefully he'll respond today.

I could easily make that if I had the material too. I can only imagine what you would create with it!!!

 

Geoff sent this info to my e-mail address.

OK here's what I did I went to my local speed shop that had a good
selsection of intakes.
I picked one that had the right bends. Now the hard part you have to
cut it
in half to mount the mass air flow. The shop will have an adapter to
bolt on
the MAFS so it can take the rubber sleve. I
did
mount the MAFS up sidedown, but the flow was still right, ie: the arrow
shows the flow. The shop will have all the yellow sleves or any color
you
might want. I did put a small filter in the PVC valve to prevent blow
back
into the injection unit. Please feel free to share this info.

Thanks Geoff for the info...

I think we can reproduce this very quickly and without a lot of $$$. I'm waiting on the type of car it was made for now. What do you think "Wiz" and "935spd"?

 

Well it sounds like it would work....many times I looked at the local speed shop to find an intake pipe that may fit. Doesn't matter now tho.....I ordered my turbo kit today.

Wre you trying to get it before Nopi? If you are, you are one bad man!

Which kit did you order? I wish they had "true" turbo kit for the SC4. I'm so jealous of you SC3 guys!!

Ikon

 

*{as I prepare to be bashed and belittled for the millionth time by the other turbo SC's here for my kit choice}*

I ordered the F-Max kit. I figure for $4600 or so I can't beat it. Even if the manifold blows into a million pieces the first day....I could buy the Toyomoto manifold and STILL be spending less than buying the total Toyo kit.

And I've seen one personally that was over a year old, and heard of a second that supposedly worked great....so who knows. I've seen GREAT results with F-Max on a Prelude....but god help me for saying that....apparently that comment says I'm putting the SC in the same class as the Prelude. ( :P just picking on you....you know who u are... ) Truthfully I'm not saying that y'all are wrong....I don't know yet. Since I already purchased it...quit giving me **** and let me find out. I'll tell you if I was wrong.

Anyways....man I can't wait for NOPI. I LOVE the super street tour.... I read that the north leg was 26mi long last year!!!!!! WOW!!!!! It didn't seem like that many people!!!

Ok I know we're gonna have a banner....did anyone find out about t-shirts? wait...I'll post this in the NOPI thread.

Ikon, you gonna at least drive your VW there, even if you don't show it? Or are you gonna have the SC?

SR

 

I'll probably be in the coupe or my brother's Boxster... I can not reveal the VW unless it is just right!!! It all depends on how I feel next week.

I can not wait to see your car either. I will be in the car tour from Dallas to Atlanta...
