ok so lets start with what i did... i took my lovely hacksaw to the stock airbox so i could only have the tube with the MAF and then connected a pepboys flextube to it and ran the tub to the fender and below and placed a filter cone there....ghetto take a look

 

ROFL!!!!...daaamn thats straight up ghetto right here!....LMAO!....are you gettin a CEL and you gaining anything>

 

hahahahahahahahahah

 

nope no CEL no leaks or anything so i dont see why i should....and i also ressetted my ecu

 

go back to the drawing board bud... Good use to tape, i think....

 

yeah, i'm sure all those flexing ridges aren't causing anykind of excess turbulance that is messing up the air flow into the engineand that tape is totally going to hold up to some of those hot under hood temperatures without melting and coming off letting anything and everything into the MAF...

i think this was a bad idea.

 

tape serves no purpose its just heavy duty double sided tape and is a bltch to get off

 

beyond bad...

at shucks you can always buy the DIY intake tubing... that has to at least be a bit better. Right?

 

funny cuz this tubing was made for intakes....and funny cuz that tape has been there for a good 3 months..and ive been through serious conditions and the tape is fine...as for leaking in..dude thaqt tape has no way of getting in

 

I think i would of spent the 40 bucks on ebay for one?

 

dont worry me brotha ill get one in no time .recently ive been paying my car payments so i had to go with the cheap stuff but yea my friend has a credit card so ill ebay one soon

 

just before your car starts giving out on you soon with these home depot performance mods. Those electric turbos dont work...

 

dont know who u mistake me as but yes i no the fake like turbonators dont work...they would never save gas or give enough spooling power to be of any benifit...and even if they put a decent amount of air in the engine with the stock ecu the air/gas ratio would take effect and u would just burn more gas with no gains

 

HAHA I think that answers who I have mistaken you for... They have so much spooling power that it actually INHIBITS the air from entering the engine. Not that it cant get more air in, it just stops air from going in.

As for A/F ratio... why have some guys gone with a stage 0 turbo, still on the stock ecu and getting about over 200 hp... no gains there...

 

thats a whole different ball game...yes they get power...but notice...that if the reflash their ecu or chip they would get even bigger gains....

 

running a turbo with the stock ecu is not the smartest thing to do...if u didnt know ud be running with alot of air and the gas would not be balanced so have fun bogging out and stuff

 

everything i WOULD have said has already been said...

soooooooo all i have to say is...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

just when i start to think that kragen intake tubing is bad already......

 

UMMM this may seem like a stupid question..... BUT..... did you actually tie it down with SHOELACE??!?!?!?!? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAH

 

You seriously couldn't have just waited and made like a CAI savings fund? Id rather leave my car stock for a month or more to save up for a real CAI than put some ghetto rigged thing inside my car.
