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! |

I thought this was interesting:
"In the chart above it’s important to note the different test durations for each filter. The AC Delco filter test ran for 60 minutes before exceeding the restriction limit while the AMSOIL and K&N tests each ran for 20 and 24 minutes respectively before reaching max restriction. In 60 minutes the AC Filter accumulated 574gms of dirt and passed only 0.4gms. After only 24 minutes the K&N had accumulated 221gms of dirt but passed 7.0gms. Compared to the AC, the K&N “plugged up” nearly 3 times faster, passed 18 times more dirt and captured 37% less dirt. See the data tables for a complete summary of these comparisons." Not good for the K&N folks. |
