intake system
 

Does anyone know of a good intake system other than stock for my pickup. '92 12v cummins. And how much of a difference will a 16cfm turbo housing make compared to stock. EGT's and and performance?????????? thanks JK

what intake are you talking about? the horn coming off the manifold? The filter and tube to the turbo?

Well I guess both maybe but I was referring to the filter and tube to the turbo. Does changing either help with cooler egt's, help with performance and milage?

BHAF and a home made mount all the way, cheap and easy.


Read through this thread, BHAF part numbers and the template for the mount are in it.

i used a peice of 4" exhaust elbow to clear the alternatore then just put the biggest filter i could. for the air horn found a free 2nd gen piece with a few silicone parts fits like a glove. as far as milage improvments ? hard to tell with your foot finding the floor constantly

I used a piece of 5" I had laying around from my exhaust system.
By cutting off about 7" or so of the stock bellows intake at the turbo end I was able to connect to the turbo, slide the cutoff portion into the 5" - VERY tight fit - and on the other end, again, cut off about 7" of the stock bellows at the filter end and force it into the 5" then slip a piece 2" long cut off a 4" PVC pipe connector and slide that into the AmsOil 4510 dry filter.
All parts fit nice and tight. In fact I have to completely disassemble the heat shield to clean the filter - but I only do that every 6 mos or so.

I also made up an intake shield that fits the front fender curve and the top slides up under the lip on the top of the fender PLUS there's a back to close it all off. I've got a pyro tip under there and the temps stay about 15* above outside temps. When I get a chance I'm going to get some stick-on insulation and cover the whole inside to try to drop the temps some more.

I like the IceBox filters. My bro just put one on his pickup and it works great. Still keeps out alot of the heat but flows GREAT!

IceBox makes some REAL nice set-ups!

X2 take a look Icebox intake

take a look at the 1st gen sticky my dear son :w2:
