Novi 2000 intake how-to..

[Trav4011]

This is not a classified... nor am I trying to sell anything.. These are the parts that I used to build my 4" polished aluminum intake for my 2 valve Novi 2000 setup.. for under 100.00..

You still have to trim your fan, like you would with the stock intake that comes in the Novi kit.. but, this one looks, and probably flows much better than stock. Again, I'm not selling anything here.. I'm simply showing how I made mine, and what parts I used. There was no reason to delete my other thread.. Is this what a chat forum is supposed to be about?... Sharing info/ideas?

And there's how it should come out.. I'm setup to run blow-through.. so I didn't have to recirculate my blow off valve.

how thick is the L Coupler for the SC inlet? i only ask because i had a buddy fab up somthing just like that for his dsm, a nice turbo to fencerwell cai, and one of the couplers collapsed under the vacuum of the turbo wanting so much air and the filter not being able to provide enough (9" Cone btw), and thankfully during the run we saw the instant drop of airflow and shut down.


all in all it looks pretty good. battery needs a good cleanin'. and you either take really good care of or repainted your cowl piece because that thing is black!

It's very thick.. and the inside is ribbed/reinforced.. watching it on the dyno.. it doesn't flex at all.

The car is/was garage kept for most of it's life.. it's in very good condition, inside and out.. That's the original battery too.. I'm about to replace it with a Optima.
