custom Apexi intake...
 
ok im still a newb....but i was woundering ...since Apexi..intakes dont come with pipes...why not make my own..i was thinking about buying some cheap a$$ cold air from ebay like this one...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...2474834804&rd=1

then throw away that trashy ebay filter and throw on the apexi...but i was ALSO THINKING...what if u rap the cheap a$$ piping with exuasht rap like this one...

Then I would create an air duct for a little forced air liek this...

Does anyone have apexi filters? if so. how's the setup?

Moved to NA...please post in the right area next time

And I plan on getting the ebay intake....throw away the crappy filter and buy a K&N or HKS filter and use that. Ive heard good things about it

yeah, it's just really the filter that matters. unless it's made out of cheap metal and shrinks~ ;)

but do you guys think rapping the ebay tube with this INSULATION WRAP would help?...

^^Thats only for exhaust, so the heat of it wont escape as much into the engine bay. There is not such thing as a wrap for intkae from what I know
