Ladies and gent how not to install a new part, intake vents that were removed provide more cool are as the car is moving. Never use a blowtorch on silicone, removing the splash pad creates more drag on the car since airflow under the car is no longer streamlined.
I did a short ram intake install on my 7th gen J30A. It really helps on gas milage. My friend who's 2JZ swapping his 350 gave me his carbon intake tube from it, cut it to length, got the filter, new coolant lines, and currently in the process in building a heat shield. None available that K&N can make but I like a challenge
did you ever make a heat shield i made my own custom short ram as well on my 04 v6 6 speed accord coupe hfp edition cant run a true cold air down in the bumper because it rains to much in Seattle but i do want to build a heat shield and i ant find anyone who has made one for our cars so i was curious if you made one?? if so id love to see some pics of the design you came up with
NIce!, I installed mine and it does feel a little better with responsiveness, I do like the sound it makes, The only question I have for you is, What size did you use for the coolant line hose?
