  • ABS PIPE..GOOD IDEA

  • 96 accord huh

  • where´s the cold air ? :D

  • Good shitt.. Ima copy you Haha. I'll post up a vid too

  • .... not bad

  • i have one just like this for my jeep but the intake and area over to where the filter would be is all engine and will be under alot of heat.did your pvc melt at all?

  • dude this is what you should do first make another one one second cut two holes in the hood one on each side third stick one intke in each hole third box it to make more force to the intake makeing more intake pressure which inturn makes more hp your welcome

  • maybe it works on some cars but I remember reading about a guy who had one of those on his srt4 and when he dyno tested, the pvc intake robbed him of 10hp and 30 lbs

  • @Turbo05Dodge Seems resonable. i wonder if using the stock air box is better.

  • this is still cold air since cold air comes in from the headlight straight into the filter.most cars come with a cold air anyways.most have the intake behind/next to the headlight at the front of the engine compartment which is cold and others have them in the fender

  • @funkjon I know this sounds redneck as hell, but I have an 83 C10 street/strip truck, and the most power I've ever gotten out of it was while running two 3" sections of aluminum dryer hose from just inside my bumper, directly to my breather. But in that case, it was essentially a ram-air intake, not a C.A.I.

  • I did something like this to my car back in the day when i was still a young dumbass. Since I had the air filter in the engine compartment it would suck all of the hot air in and make the car slower. Then I put the stock air filter back on and I was in disbelief at how much quicker my car was. Get a proper cold air intake people

  • The intake on this car most likely reduces HP compared to the stock intake, you are drawing in hot air, the charge is less dense than a true cold air intake.

  • LOL PVC PIPES!!! HAD A FRIEND DO THAT...TOO RICER

  • thank you posting this video. I was planning on doing this to my car.

    

  • If it was got at walmart you would of gotten more RP for that pile of junk

  • Thats a short ram...not cold air (even though you probably know that by now considering the video is from 07' lol...)

  • If i was gonna change that in any way all id do is run it so the filter is closer to the road, yes it will pick up more shit but the air down there is colder, also gotta watch out for puddles more after you do that haha.

    also in the way of heat shielding, that PVC would be a pretty good heat shield by itself (cause its so thick) but if you wanted a cheap and easy way to sheld it a little more, put either a cheap home insulator around it (duct tape it on, do whatever you gotta do) Cont.

  • @watsdissniffinere you wont have to worry about it trapping water because its not wrapped around metal, the other (slightly more expensive but better looking option) would be exhaust heat wraps... same deal, no need to worry about it trapping water and itll cost you stuff all to do :)

  • I here a Honda!

  • @TheEkamuhs Actually, most 4 cylinder engines sound like that with less restrictive intakes when you pump the throttle.

  • HaHA i work at home depot!! this is brilliant!! lmao

  • i usually talk shit to ppl who do this to their cars because it DOES NOTHING

    but your on to something

    but you should take off that autozone brand filter and get a real one or else youll just fuck your shit up.

  • Make a heat shield and then it will be a CAI.

    Good work though

  • yah lol that plastic is actually thicker than k&n's. lol better heat sheild!

  • P.V.C. PIPE -____-

  • I love this video. I was looking at cars, came a crossed "home made intake" and each one seems to be a modified kit or something not really homemade, and I was thinking "I'm gonna be so proud if someone uses pvc pipe as an intake" and here you have done it, and I give you props. Awesomely brilliant!

  • i don't know why 11 people dislike it ! that's impressive for home made

  • hahahahahaha hes got nothing blocking the heat....might as well put the filter behind the tail pipe...but it looks good i guess

  • his thing looks really nicely made. screw buying one when you can piece one together! its got huge tubing too! bet that thing gets good air flow. Any ideas how to rig up a nice lookin heat shield?

  • @aaminjoshi91 Use cardboard for stencils, make one out of cardboard and tape/glue. then use them as stencils on sheetmetal, and cut them out, and make sure you make screw holes and make sure everythings air tight with some DAP silicone.

  • @JobeMinacum Alright man sounds like a plan. wouldnt sheet metal get hot though?

  • Did you use ABS or did you paint it flat black??

  • What diameter pipe do you use?

  • how much that cost you? lol you coulda gone to ebay and got one for like 25 dollars with a filter

  • Thats a SAI. or short ir intake, a CAI draws engines from somewhere other than the engine bay. SAI uses hot air from the engine bay and produces less power than a CAI. Still good idea, cheap, look decent, only thing is plastic is rought inside unlike alloy and will decrease the speed of the air going in, so u will lose a fell horses, other than that its ok.

  • that'd be a short ram, not cold air whatsoever. Nice pvc job though lmao

  • nice! unmetered air coming into the combustion chamber. you are asking for trouble. just wait till you melt a piston because you are running lean. there is a reason intakes have ports for a MAF.

  • funny thing is...after awhile that pipe is gonna change. pvc pipe becomes a wet noddle when hot

  • @nit8690 

  • is there any way i could custom make somthing like that for a 1990 geo metro ?

  • @ghettosuperstar87 If you're going to get a Short RAM get one of quality... same goes for CAI... make sure the tubing will fit your TB inlet usually 2.5-3 inches. Also get various couplers and clamps

  • Whoever says " its dumb cuz its sucking hot air" should fuck a goat. The location is in the exact same place as an AEM $130 short ram intake

  • @1PARADOXXX oh dear, you are a clueless boy racer that knows nothing about how engines work. That has decreased performance and is allowing huge bits of dirt through with the hot air it is sucking in. learn a bit more and stop being victim of advertising and marketing.

  • @urbex2007 Huge bits of dirt? thats why he has a filter on it, besides if your statement was true anyone with individual throttle bodies should suffer massive decrease in horsepower

  • Not the best place to put it.

    Mines running down near the bottom of my front bumper - isn't affected by engine temp at all.

  • that is the best home made air intake i have ever seen, and it is probley better then the stock one but what u should do is put flex tubing from your grill to the air filter and then it will be perfect but ya good job not bad at all better then all theses duct taped on shit this is actualy nice looking

  • Haters. Spending 200-400 for a metal CIA is a waste because the metal heat soaks not matter where you locate the filter. You ever seen dudes at the track putting ice bags on their "CAI"'s to cold them down? PVC doesn't suffer from heat soa, it is lighter and cheaper. DIY FTW!

  • what material is your pipe? plastic pvc pipeing?

  • did it run any better, some say its sucking hot air where you put it?

  • Not Bad :P

  • HA HA maby if you stick it out of the middle of the hood you would make a ram air LMAO..... Fucking ricers

  • @smkmods haha and don't you love how people through on an "Intake" like this and have to post it on youtube like it's something amazing.

  • @Vettes4lyfe shut up jealous bitch because your not mechanically incline, deadbeat

  • @kenithj76 Lmao! That was the worst diss I ever seen. You probably think this IS a cold air intake. And if you do, your the one who isn't mechanically inclined. An intake like this costs $25 from any auto parts store. I don't know ANYONE who would be jealous of this! It's a filter stuck on sewer piping from a hardware store. you gave me a good laugh.

  • @Vettes4lyfe your welcome

  • @smkmods But if you take a old school car lets say a 75 to 81 camaro 305 or 350 and put a high raised breather on it and you cut a hole in your hood and put a scoop on it to add function is that called custom or rice???

  • @stylinwiley they dont call muscle cars rice, they call it redneck.

  • nice auto zone filter

    

  • definitely not a cold air

  • shit!

  • nice can dohan most job on your intake better than most could do by far

  • if you paint it silver or wrap in aluminum itll reflect heat =] keep up the good work :D

  • what brand intake do u have........RONA BRAND BEATCH

  • actually thats a Hot air intake. (top of engine compartment - doesnt get any hotter than that)

  • @MrChad97Z this is NOT a hot place at this point on the engine bay and using a pipe that take air from the bumper you can make it work like a ram air feed.

    +there is no issues with hydrolock !

  • @MrChad97Z What makes a cold air intake then?

  • @csidaznigga It's when it pulls the air from the bottom of the bumper or wheel well, if its at the top of the motor it just pulls the hot air that the engine produced.

  • @MrChad97Z

    this is true but on a cd5 if u remove the splash shield its a "safe" cai (I.E the rainy season).. theres a huge hole jus below that filter.. i had a custom intake but recenlty installed an HKS wit the mushroom filter that almost presses against the hole... its perfect!

  • Comment removed

  • @MrChad97Z also known as a ram intake

  • @MrChad97Z its cool air intake

  • @MrChad97Z I'm curious...I have an intake that is top of engine compartment, but has a heat shield..but draws air from the factory ( 06 Eclipse GT..factory ram air ) Would it still be a hot air intake? all it says is performance intake ( K&N Typhoon )... I'm curious..thanks.

  • @snake1921 All air intakes that I have seen enter the engine from the top. I prefer a plastic tubing over metal tubing that channels the air into the engine. Ram air is bring air from outside the engine compartment which is better than inside the engine compartment. A heat shield sounds good, but usually a heat shield is to protect from a really hot source that is sitting right next to a sensitive component rather than insulating something entirely. But I assume its a value add anyway.

  • @MrChad97Z Okay, thanks. I've heard it called everything from cold air to hot air to ram air. I was confused..

  • @snake1921 best cold air is a snorkel from truck

  • PVC= bad for engine

  • @ABeans07

    Can you explain why? For real???

  • Well PCV might have a high melt point, but it has a low softening point. In some cases 175*F. Which means that stuff is getting soft as hell just driving around. Just so you at the melting point PVC emits Chlorine gas (poly-vinyl-CHLORIDE) which is VERY bad for you. When chlorine gas interacts with the moisture and tissues in your longs it converts to hydrochloric acid. YUP nasty stuff.

  • @SeigiSama maybe he should use cpvc

  • @ABeans07 why ?

  • too bad it's not ram air

    what's the point?

    moron

  • DIY thats the way to do it :)

    to hell with Cali. and all their hippies

  • damn a cali cop will fuk u over for that

    carb legal? nope

  • wait, how the hell is that illegal in cali? i knew they had some crazy laws, but really???

  • it must be C.A.R.B. legal

    fuck california air resource board!!!

    bannin 2 strokers and all the good stuff lol

  • @yz125rider209 i have an '09 yz125 live 2stroke 4ever

  • @yz125rider209 only in california it has to be carb legal.

  • gotta have a carb sticker on it..plus that intake pipe still look restricted

  • that blows. lucky me i dont live there, lol.

  • Shot!!

  • ha. haha. hahahaha

  • is that pvc pipe?!?!?! awesome! rofl

  • haha nice

  • wat u used

  • sounds like a vacuum LEAK

  • Let me guess a 1998 -2002 accord. I got the same setup but mine is ebay aluminum much meaner sounder and it was cheap and cheery!!!. Not!

  • now that wat in talkin bout :D right on

  • HONDA haha!

  • chevy is gay .....what car is that in ??

  • not a CAI intakeat all if anything its a ram air intake.

  • its WAI set up... Ram Air involves the intake extending to the very front of the car (through the bumper) where cold air is forced into the intake, due to the car moving.

  • uh no cold air intake just gets colder air because its farther away from the engine bay..

  • same thing

    rather than air box being right next to engine... its in the bumper farther away from motor..

  • yeah he didn't say ram air did he? lol

  • Dosent it supposed to be alumminum to increase heat exchange?What if you intake pure welding oxygen into your engine?What will happen ?Lol please answer me...Maybe 30% pure oxygen and 70 % normal air?

  • BANG!!

  • You would probably fry your engine.

  • then it would be the same idea as nitroux oxide. helluva lot more power, but if u calculate the amount of oxygen ud need, ur gonna realize its a bad idea overall. my daily driver, a 1.9L inline4, uses up 168 cubic feet of air per minute at high-ish engine speeds. any real car will use up at least twice that amount.

  • yes very true. and another sad thing is that . when adding these intakes. without altering fuel it always kills bottom end and mid range. . my 3.1 at sunbird. stock would fry tires. put a intake on it. and it would not . a little chirp. now i stuck a set of larger fuel injectors ( junk yard $10 i paid off 305 tpi) and it ran STRONG a vtec eating machine.

  • hmm...i see ur point...my car responded surprisingly well to my intake. id actually go as far as to say that middle torque got the biggest boost. however, im planning on improving on that, which means i may need new injectors.

  • A sunbird? lol what vtec are you eating the parked ones? a 3.1 litre sunbird the same engine in the z24 Produces 180lb/ft torque sure, but a laughable 127HP. Which means every Vtec machine alive already beats its ass. Everyone knows a sunbird can't get out of it's own way going down hill with a a tail wind. I've Owned 3 Different models. The 2.0 SE the 2.0GT turbo, and the 3.1 as well as my Ex wife's '90 z24. The 2.0GT turbo beat them all with the z24 being second. Sunbird top speed 85mph.

  • kinda a ricer ! but very creative i like it good shit

  • Ahh, 4cyl's

    I remember when i was a ricer. :P

    Try it with a 350 Chevy. ;)

  • hell yea ive got 2. no cold air though

  • ah your gay.

  • Hello i installed a cold air intake for my ford expedition today and the truck will shut off as soon as i start it. Whats wrong does anyone know?

  • I had the same problem. I realized that I forgot to plug in my MAF sensor. Make sure all your connections are correctly in

  • you might have a vacuum leak cheak all the intake parts or MAF sensor might me lug in the wrong wat like 21mejia25 was saying

  • Hela tight setup. Which do you prefer, homemade or a kit?

  • homemades cheaper right? and u can make it as big as the engine bay fits :D

  • All i do is just put ice inside my filter cone.

    It works.

  • until it melts, then your suckin water

  • It was a joke.

  • cant go wrong with the gold top

  • Very nice man, you wouldn't happend to have that ride on Car Domain would you?

  • nice

  • cool. at first it kinda sounded like a pig.

  • nice work man :)

    i like it

  • Cold air intake is when it actually has the filter outside the engine bay nearer to the front bumper. That is a WAI.

  • whats a WAI?

  • he meant short ram intake

  • u mean short ram intake

  • is that pvc pipe?

  • shit, i should have done this

  • Makes me laugh that you guys think all American cars "suck". Take your riced out Accord, and rev your motor next to an 04 Ford Mustang Cobra. 390rwhp in stock trim. And most of 'em aren't stock. And no, little Accord boy. Unless you got a twin turbo V-8 in your stupid Hon-DUH, then you aren't gonna beat a VR4. I think the 1.8 comment was talking about a VW. They have VR6's, but VR4 is the most ridiculous Mitsubishi out there...Evo's will get STOMPED by these, with VERY few modifications....

  • Im sorry, I had a Pontiac and I can honestly say im sticking with imports from here on out. My Pontiac always broke down. My tiburon begs for more.

    go cowboys

  • Dude are you serious? a Mustang Cobra? So you need to take the highest end mustang to say that domestics are good wow good job you're forgetting an accord is in the 20k's and a cobra is like 100 grand, And no u don't need a V8 to beat out a mustang cobra sorry dude. You could tune a car with a fucking ecotec engine which supports up to 1200hp and you could wipe the floor with it. Its not all about muscle, moron. You're forgetting 1/3 of the power of a mustang is just to haul its own ass

  • I'm a moron?? Check around a little before you open your mouth. An 04 Cobra is only 18K. You spend your money on your ecotec 4 banger. I'll spend HALF and get TWICE the HP. 1/3 of the power to move the car? Crapcord isn't much lighter. Cobra 3114lbs, 01 Accord 2943lbs. 08 Accord 3230. I'm sure the ones in between are about the same. 390 is better than 240. Go to google and type in 03-04 Mustang Cobra specs. Then read it, and learn something about a REAL car. And good luck beating 1 in ur HONDUH!

  • wow big man, comparing two different class of cars an tryin to sound all bad ass ... watch out....

  • HAHA... You must drive a stupid ricer too. Homo's! Look at the first post. I wasn't comparing the 2 classes at first. Just defending the American built cars. Ya know, REAL CARS! And mentioning that the Accord boy should go against something worth going against, since his crapccord is SO fast. But, thanks for playing. Try again next week. Same time, same channel. Ass-clown....

  • wow.... that was the sorriest insult atempt ever... thanks for playing? next week? wtf? thats sum corny ass shit... and no.. im no where near a ricer... nice try chode... an u would only be wasting your time if u write back, cuz i dont have to open or read ur dumb ass insults... thanks for playing? haha FAIL.. come on dude... lol just fuck off. good bye :)

  • Well, at least your not a ricer. And besides, I wasn't really trying to insult you. Just commenting on your retarded comment. There's no reason for insulting people. It's all in good fun. No reason to get all butt-hurt. Sounds like you might need to go change your man-pon......fail, in your opinion. I got the desired reaction. thanks for playing, nice try.....sound a lot alike to me....and you're correct. You don't have to read it. But you will. You didn't have to reply last time. Have a good 1!

  • i have a V6 mustang, but i still got to say fuck most mustang owners, there like T GOT A MUTHER FUCKIN MUSTANG its the baddest ass shit around. in sorry hondas dont really compair but come one fuck off, my alero can roast my v6 hands down, and i beleive there videos of aleros beating mustang GT's on here too.

  • We aren't talking about your little 6 banger Stang. Those things shouldn't even be allowed to wear Mustang emblems. Your Alero is not fast. And if they beat GT's, then the owner blows at driving. But, it could be. But you aren't gonna touch a Cobra.

  • what do you drive???

  • I've got 4 cars. Lifted Trailblazer, 94 5.0 Mustang GT, daily driver Escort ZX2 (32 mpgs baby!!), and my project is a bagged S10. In the middle of a 350 V8 swap. Why do you ask, if I may?

  • aha made of sewage pipes aha ghetto

  • sweet man really nice> this is to all you ar tards at the bottom STFU if you really want something to race against try running your cars against my 70 dodge charger rt 783rwhp supercharged 426 bored and stroked into a 440 with moded cam and gears it will rip you all a new assholes!

  • Haha! right on man, show the friggers up with some MUSCLE

  • thanx dude

  • wait...WHY is your name "streetcivic09" when you own a muscle car....

  • i have a civic im rebuilding

  • why is your name streetcivic09 when you own a charger...

  • i have a 96 civic im rebuilding

  • lol I wanna race you in my GN iits got a lil mor ethan stock but I can't say what >.>  =-O

  • Is that an accord or some kind of honda?

  • cold air intake?? its called a warm air intake. 2 totally different things!

  • nice sound. nice job.

  • the plasytic wouldnt b cold and the outside could even melt and it would help u car....

    waste of time.

    dont b cheap spend the money

  • and, if that nub a page back, is talkin about a fuckin hyundai tiburon, those little 4 cylinders cant take the power of my z24 cavalier, ill stop the gas and leave rubber on ur face

  • my chevy beretta would eat yours lmao

  • oh shit , a Cav , a chevy , man ur all laim , these arnt even cars , idono y i am on this page any ways , a VR4 will kick all your asses anyday K.

  • my accord would kick both your asses......and all chevy's suck, so ur both equally crap

  • accord , hahah, u made me laugh man ,if ur some where near lemma c u , around so ill make sure u get a really good look at the rear of my car .

    i dont know how the ricey accord will get even near a VR4 making 450 hp . C yA

  • ricey accord? that is such a stereotype.majority of accords are not rice.

    and wow, where do you live? anywhere in canada? if so come down to ontario and ill rip ur vr4 in half

  • hey noodle eater im in edmonton and here only teenage girls learnin how to drive r seen in cords aight , so ill just let some one else with a VR4 beat ur ass , i knw thers plenty of VR4s aka rice grinders in Ontario , just try to rev up near one on the street and ur gonna be annihilated no doubt ,lemme know how it goes loser .

  • my bro is in NE Calgary, he has a 200 Maxima GLE, 5spd, im coming in december so ill see you there

  • sure hommy , ill be waitin , im in calgary twice a month , ill teach ur bro how we do it on the 17th .

  • and just to tell you, there is no such thing as a vr4, its called the 1.8T

  • what the fuck are you talkin about , Mitsubishi 3000gt VR4 ( 3.0 twinturbo ) 320 hp stock , over 700hp moded , what 1.8T are u talkin about hommy , u think i roll in an AUDI? look it up bud , it looks like u were up against the wrong car , no wonder u had such balls to battle.

  • wait...stereotype cause he called ur accord ricey? so then saying "all chevy's suck", isnt that the same thing?...dumbass

  • well, ask any car enthusiast, all american manufactured and based cars SUCK. and not all accords are ricey, it becomes ricey by the choice of the person, its not rice when it comes straight from the factory, whereas all american cars SUCK straight from the factory, a person makes a car rice, BUT chevy makes its car SUCK, the driver doesnt do anything, therefore not all accords are rice.

  • "suck" is a pretty opinionative word... where as "ricer" is just reference to a japanise vehicle...

    just sayin

  • well....ok sure "suck" is a "whatevr you wanna call it" word but not all japanese cars are "ricers"...thats lke saying all american cars are horribly engineered...whereas all american trucks are the best of all....just saying....dont wanna start a big argument/controversy

  • not quite... but wtvr... i honestly couldnt care less lol

  • lol...truee...same here

  • and that tiburon will never have anything on chevy , but hate 2 say, but your cav would get stomped by my 85 iroc ss choo choo customs elcamino...
