Thread: Any suggestions on intake tube??

I having a hell of a time finding a intake tube that has a fitting for my BOV. Are there any companies or any other cars that we can use? I have a B13 and a Kenetic battery that's mounted laying on its side. I have plenty of room but I need something with a S bend. Any input is appreciated,thanks guys..

More info is necessary for people to help you. What kind of BOV do you have? Why do you need an S bend? Where is your IC piping routed through?

Chances are you're going to have to build the IC piping yourself for whatever route you take with the piping.

Ok,my bad fellas.. I have a gt2871r on a JGY Gtir manifold with a 1st Gen eclipse BOV recirculated. My piping is 2.5 on the hot side and cold side. I have a front mount IC with the piping routed like a lot of people do, turbo to passengers side (where washer bottle hole is) fender area to the FMIC out to drivers side fender area to the intake manifold. I'm running draw-in on my MAF. I need a S bend tube cause that would fit best over my lower radiator hose then end right above my Battery.

I kinda figured I would have to make my own pipe but I thought I'd see what everyone else is doing. What type of pipe are you guys using? What material?

2.5" is more than enough, aluminum is the way to go. It is lighter, better against corrosion and Better at dissipating heat than steel. ww.siliconeintakes.com is a good Place to buy them at.

Also search for the turbo engine bay thread and you'll see plenty of examples of intercooler piping.

i used a radiator hose from a ga16 sentra trimmed to fit....works great and sounds like it's not there....lol

most good auto part stores will have a big wall of hoses....just get a good idea of the bends you want and the size you need and ask to look at the wall of hoses.....i've never been turned down or not found what i needed

Thanks guys for the input! I've never heard of that web site. It has everything you can think of and more at great prices too. I'll definitely be getting my intake piping from them.

This site was mentioned above but don't forget to try the coupon code when ordering. See Vadim's link.

Unless you want OEM one, you have to do custom. I have this on my setup, and have another pipe with IACV air lines.

I definitely don't want the OEM rubber intake so custom intake is the only option from what i see. That website will help out a lot and make things much easier for sure. Now all I have to do is try to make the straightest pipe possible and intall some barb fittings for my BOV recirculating hose and ventilation hose.
