2g intake pipe in a 1g?

[KCz Eclipse]

Alright, so I plan on upgrading my 1g maf to a 2g. So I will need to change the pipe as well. But what I am wondering is if just buying a 2g intake pipe will fit in the 1g. I have heard that it is too long, but then I have heard of guys doing it. So I guess I am just trying to get some more opinions on the topic. I know there is a pipe made for this, but its a little pricey. Anybody on here running a regular 2g pipe in a 1g? Lets see them.

Thanks in advance

I'd like to know this as well. I'm planning on running an Evo 8 maf I have laying around.

Maf/intake pipe/adapter for round air filter, 2g wire harness, and this http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-intake-exhaust/440902-2g-maf-wiring-dummies.html

And also an safc or way to tune for the better 2g/evo maf.

I've had a 2g mas in both a 1ga and 1gb. It is a bit tricky to get it to fit in a 1ga due to the flip up motor.
Here's a mock up in my 1ga back when I had it.

And here's my 1gb. Fits a lot easier with out that motor right there but still a little snug without the right size filter.

I forgot to mention the "custom" recirc tube you will need..I used a peice of old vaccume hose,So did jaxness.."Custom" not rigged, remember that.

Or go to your local auto parts store for the shiny aluminum vaccume looking hose...Its like 3 bux.

I ran the stock 2g pipe in my 1ga just fine. A little hard to fit a cone on the end but you can make it work with a smaller one.

Alrights thats good to know. I will just buy a regular 2g intake pipe and mess with it.

Well, I guess I forgot to ask if it could get it to fit still running the stock intercooler pipe.

The first pic in post #4 has stock location piping. So it will fit exactly like that.

But that filter looks tiny.

Yea not a whole lot of room to work with there. An auto zone spectre type filter should fit in there.

This is the filter i used iirc.

Is there any intake pipe solutions for me since I want to run my buschur short route kit with the evo 8 maf?

Yep dejon makes a pipe for that.

If you are reall yon a budget, you can heat up the stock intake with a heat gun and stretch it over the 2g MAF. That's what I have

Ah, nice. Thanks 91stocker.

The microwave works nicely as well.

Ah, nice. Thanks 91stocker.

Yep, no problem. And whoops i linked the main page instead of the pipe itself. My bad.

Yea I didnt have a lot of room for a big filter. A short filter like that is really the only way it'll fit.

Anything designed for a 1G as the 1G and Evo VIII MAS are both right at 3" O.D.

I stumbled across this one day, maybe an option for you also. Hope this helps.

The 3g as well correct?

That is slick. Good find

Oh sweet. Thanks! The Evo VIII mas is slightly shorter too isn't it?

 

[JusMX141]

Than a 2G MAS, maybe...but a 1G MAS is located inside the air filter- so it's the biggest space-saver of the three if length is your issue.

Just do this and save your money. I tried the 2g Injen pipe and it left no room for a filter. Even if you managed to squeeze in a filter you will have a choked out engine. I just used my stock pipe and ran a nice large aftermarket filter.

Cool. Thanks Justin. I was planning on running an FP intake pipe with the Evo III MAS and as big a filter as I can fit. I've read a bunch of threads where people say you can't fit an FP pipe, MAS, and filter in the 1g engine bay but sounds like with the shorter EVO MAS and a shorter filter, I might be able to get by with it.

Can you use the stock pipe with a short route FMIC kit (ie: Buschur)?

They're wrong.
