i have seen pictures of "aftermarket" intakes on some of the 914's here and was just wondering a few things:
1. are these home-made or bought somewhere? 2. how do you connect all the vacuum hoses to an aftermarket one? 3. any pics? this is what im kinda goin for: (IMG:http://racingguys.onlinera.com/85-0581P.jpg) (i know its a bmw, but its got the straight pipe and filter that i want) Would this work? Please post some pics if you've done this "mod" Thanks! |

found this:
http://members.rennlist.com/demick/coldair.html he reports gains but at an aesthetic cost lol... i found the thread i was looking for!!! http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...7&hl=intake that was the intake i remember seeing, and it answers my question about the stock vacuum hose inputs i see cap 'n's responses and i understand the reasoning, but a more open/cleaner engine compartment will be nice, paired with the correct air filter and proper positioning i think it could produce nice gains and aesthetic looks as well |
