Make a baffle from the drivers side radiator shroud to keep from drawing in hot air from the radiator. HUGE difference on the Alpine kit to get cooler air.

would there be a way of pulling in air from the wheel well like the stock setup?
I just cringe thinking about driving through monsoons and big puddles with an intake like that.
The filter protrudes into the stock hole in the fender a little and about a 1/4 of the filter draws directly from the hole. As for the water concern, it is not much different than my intake kits and i have never had a problem with them.
how many mud holes have you driven through in your axiom? :)
Looks nice, you do good work and should be proud.
Okay i deserved that one, and to answer that... 1 and it was the week i bought it...........You could put a water bypass in the intake tube to be safe.Quote:

Here is a video of the finished product in action, as for the cost i am not sure yet but the best price i can get on the blowers is $1500, so i may offer just the kit and let people get their own blowers from where ever they want.

yeah how much for the kit, and what would it include?
bracket obviously...
intake? pipes? clamps? Belts? Pulleys?
It would include everyting except the blower head and maybe the electric fan, but as i said above i am not sure yet.
If I were to bite on this one I would prefer a complete kit, including the turbo and electric fan. Getting everything from one place simplifies the purchase and ensures that you are getting compatible and complete parts sets.
Sweeeeeeeeet. Love that S/C whine. That doesnt sound like a bad idea on selling a kit w/ out the powerhead. If I had more money than a broke college student that's what I would go for.
MT just would have to list the part #'s for us.
So I was sittin in class today playin gold on my cellphone when I had a thought, who woulda thunk?
How about relocating the battery to the trunk mounting two of those puppy's under the hood. I think that would be :flame: if the tranny holds up and someone figures out how to tune the ecu.
