I'm looking for an intake tube just like the one below, except I dont want any recirculation tube. I'm running a blow thru set-up so I dont recirculate. Dejon Tool doesnt have one like this, nor do I want to spend $120 on just a tube. Can anyone find any specific lace that has one just like this one?

It probably isnt the same outside material your looking for but it is just as good. Its a 4in intake though but they have a coupler that will allow you to mate it with a 14b,16g etc
Yeah, I love the FP 4" intake, especially for the price..... But there's something I forgot to mention. I need it to be round on both ends. The FP is an oval on one end for a 2G MAS. I'd perfer a 3" tube, round on both ends, but 4" will work too.....
Thanks for the idea though. :thumb:
 
If you don't mind making like 2 or 3 cuts, try the intake pipes from an older Accord. Here is the link to how it works.

It ends up being a perfect intake for those running MAFT blow-through.

You can either run the filter where the old one was, or you can leave one of the bends on and have the intake be where your old SMIC was since you have FMIC. I would reccommend leaving the filter in the stock location so you don't end up getting crap all over your filter. We did this on Brandon's (agent11br) car and it turned out really sweet. I ordered one and should have that goin soon too. You can PM/IM him for pics if you want. The total cost was like 30-40 bucks.
 
You can make a 4 inch round universal filter fit on FP intake. It will be alittle ovaled but will work just fine.

You can make your own out of some mandrel bends, and get them welded together. Then polish or powdercoat it. Would cost you hardly anything.
LOL, the words "mandrel bends" and "cost hardly anything" should not be used in the same sentence. Any material will be expensive in a 3" mandrel bend.... And I'll be the first to admit that I dont have the tools to fabricate one. Buying one would be easier for me....
 
UPDATE: I contacted the person who fabricated the tube in post #1. He agreed to make me one to my specs for only $50 shipped. :thumb:

This just went on sale, it's exactly what you're looking for. 90 bucks though. http://www.straightlinespecialties.com/product_info.php?cPath=29&products_id=114
Thanks for the link. That is what I was looking for..... If I didnt find anything yet, I would definatily get that one. :thumb:


Thanks to everyone in this thread for your help. :dsm:

even a full expensive-ass stainless u-bend in a 4" is only 100 bux and you're lookin to spend that on a premade one - find aluminized for 30 and quit complainign about mandrel being expensive

Like I already said in the post above yours (which you failed to read), I already found a premade one for $50 shipped......

Since when does commenting = complaining?? :thumbdown
What good are mandrel bends w/o something to cut and weld them?
I never looked to spend $100....

Hey Matt, do you have any pics of that pipe on Brandon's car?

I don't think I have any on my computer...Brandon has a link to his pics on his AIM profile, but he's gone for spring break. I'll try and get some by the end of the week.
 
Verryyyyy sexy setup you've got there :thumb: Which turbo is that? Where'd you get that 90 deg. bend and the o2 housing? I'm gonna be doing the PTE 50-trim somewhat soon, so I'm just curious ;)

Thanks. The turbo is a Garrett T04b with a Bullseye turbine housing. The O2 housing is from Punishment Racing. And the 90* bend came with my side-to-side SBR FMIC. :thumb:
