HDT cold air intake

[bangers]

does anyone have any pics or a description of the HDT cold air intake for the NA 6 cyl?

I didn't know there was such a thing, might have to do some research on this lol. I have recently added a custom metal intake pipe from the TB to the airbox and have picked up a noticable amount of power over the rippled rubber/plastic pipe. am trying to decide which way to go with a CAI without cutting the body as others have done.

I don't have the net on anymore but will try to get some pics up one day as well as the dyno sheet (before intake pipe mod, prolly got more KW now)

Hey there uc, what mods have u done to yours to get that kind of power.....?

cheers....

Ummm not much really, 2&1/2 catback with muffler and resonator fitted, pacemakers,K&N panel filter, rear mesh removed from afm. That 104.6 rwkw run was when the car was playing up too, coz if ya don't already know ultratune epping screwed me big time by not changing the plugs that are under the intake manifold when I got it serviced there and I went back a dozen times with the same problem and they replaced $1000 worth of parts and the problem remained *not farking happy*. Enter the legends at Bresciani racing (John in particular) who understood how badly I had been screwed over and fixed the car and really looked after me.

Since then I have fitted the custom pipe as mentioned above and there is a heap of power there when I run premium unleaded. (smokes most v6's and keeps up with some 5 litres). I want to get another run done soon with the new mods and hopefully I should be in the 115-120rwkw range and then I will be happy at that (for a while LOL)

would you be able to post any pics on the pipeing? please
curious on how it looks and how you set it up, and if u dont mind me asking how much and where?

Yeah it was really a find of luck and coincidence, I was at u-pull-it (pick a part for those who have it lol), and happened upon the pipe, bought it for the princely sum of $6 painted it and fitted it. I still need some more silicone connectors and clamps and to paint the other section of pipe. but need the car off the road for 24hrs to do this. The pipe is 2&1/2 inchs in diameter and has the spot for the line that runs to the intake as well as the clips that hold the leads on, Heat soak is not a problem like I thought it could be which is great. Its not pretty atm but I'm gonna get there soon hopefully lmao. Any exhaust shop would make you one on the cheap and then its just a matter of polishing or painting it.

nice find, just quick question, the thing circled do that need to be used to release the oil vapour into the manifold, and the pipe ive drawn in where is that ment to go or what is yours doing?

sorry to ask so many questions just trying to get it down pat, before i try

Cheers Mag I thought there was something up with my front suspension LOL must get that looked at when I feel richer.
The hose you have circled is just a vent/breather and runs from the rocker cover to the intake pipe, it in no way affects the running/power/smoothness etc it is part of the emmisions I think its called positive crankcase ventilation or something. will replace it with one of those K&N breathers one day. The one that runs from the intake manifold to the intake pipe has been moved to just in front of the TB.

HAHA told ya its not pretty ATM :whistling
