Fabricated Intake....

Got a K&N Typhoon and ran it for about a month or so.

Now i bought cold air piping from ebay and used what i could to make it fit.

My Lanc3r is GHETTO!

It's cleaner than others I've seen. Not ghetto at all man. Good job making it work for you.

you should get rid of the blue connector thingy's and use black ones, that would take away some of the ebay'ness and it would match your valve cover.

You might use a battery relocation kit, and put your battery in the trunk, giving you more space for an intake... possibly putting by the Fog light area..? make your engine bay look cleaner too

Bought the piping from ebay. haha. and i'm still using my K&N filter with the ebay piping.

the CAI got my car just a bit faster than my friend's stock mazda 3, and i KNOW the mazda 3 would spank me stock vs. stock. so the gains would be very impressive, i'm really happy. haha

Looks good for a custom job, better than most peoples they just try and get away with ****ty pipe or pvc or something. Do US lancers have to have reflashes like the Evos do to get good gains from this?
