Custom Intake

[Metman2J]

Can anyone tell me what I would need to build my own air intake system? I can't find one for my Talon that seems right for the price. Any help would be great.

just get a cone filter and rip off the airbox and old filter and throw the new one on

its gonna be a little more complex than that, but hey, you get the idea

today i just finished the third intake i have built for my n/t eclipse, so instead of telling you what not to do (because obviously if im on my third i know) i will tell you what works well.

i took the stock intake and hacked it right before my silencer so i stil have a 90 degree elbow. Then i went to home depot and got a rubber abs adapter that has a 2" opening on one end and a 3" opening on the other and clamped the 2" side to the remaing elbow, right off my throttle body. On the other side i attached 3" black PCV pipe with a 45 degree albow leading more pipe to the mud gaurd right before your front lip. At the end of the pipe i have a metal sleeve that just fits into the pCV pipe( with some force) and left it sticking out about 2 inches to clamp my K&N filter o the end of it. Full cold air. Then i drilled the side of the PCV pipe where your breathr hose is and stuck a threaded valve into it and attached it to my valve cover with a small breaded hose and the stock little fitting. WORKS GREAT, for now. only 20$.

all supplies bought: 10ft black PCV pipe, abs cement, brass valve, 2-3" rubber adapter, 45 Degree elbow, K&N filter(not added to cost of intake).
if ya have any other questions lemme know, ill have pics soon.

Is there anyway to do it without ripping things apart? I don't want to do something that may not be reversable because I don't know how long I'm going to have the car.
