Great work, Phil; very resourceful. Sounds good, too. (thumb)

Dave: How big a core did you pick up? I'm thinking about doing a custom FMIC next summer and I'm going over my options. Have you looked at the Altered Customs piping kit?

Thanks. I think the main thing here was that people on a budget (me), can go out and get stuff for a substantially less amount than what some vendors/shops want. I mean a CAI from various vendors range in prices, but SU wants over $350 for a CAI...that's nuts!
I'm gonna check the diameter size when I get home and get a comparison from say the CPe Fujita and K&N. The design for the most part seems to be the same. I believe a better filter instead of the current ebay one will improve performance...If I get the best filter $ can buy, maybe total invested would be less than $80...

You should look at AEM or Amsoil, get a dryflow much easier to maintain vs an oiled one. Thats what i'm looking to pick up next week to replace the cobb one.

Thanks for the info.

not including the end tanks its 18"x3.5"x6.5" with 2.5" inlets/outlets

i've looked at their kit.. but it will require a new intake, and going to ebay to buy a piece of pipe with the flange for the stock bpv

Wait so Cobb filter is an oiled one. I need to clean it? or replace it?

IDK what to do. What do people typically do?

Cleaning it is fairly easy. Just get the K&N kit for ten bucks or so. Remove the filter, spray the cleaner on, hose off, let completely dry, and spray on the oil. I usually do it a few times a year on car washing days.

this is ms6 related how?
jk lol. should have done a rough draft in MS Word lol.

i recently cracked my Nextmod front lip, the last few days have been spent fixing it. s*** IS TOUGH AS NAILS NOW! and weighs about 4 lbs more then when i started. Can still make out some hair line cracks, those will get filled with resin and hopefully by the end of the weekend i can have it looking as good as new!

Will do, most likely it will be installed tomorrow.

 

[kahmikahze]

installed the new pedobear sticker right above the right headlight.

it's good for about 15 hp. did a WOT run and the AP showed zero knock and a boost increase of 5 psi.
just don't know how all these damn kids are showing up in my trunk......

 

[Worbit]

I abused the s*** out of my MS6 for the past two days......drove from Seattle to San Diego!
