P4killer_ Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Is the flare on the end necessary? I know nothing about any kind of areo port lol Yeah it is preferred. Lowers turbulence. If you can do it at both ends it's even better. Well be flaring the other end after testing for tuning etc.. in order to save time on constant cutting and reflaring during testing.

TaylorFade Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Unfortunately... no pics of the jig. I've since trashed it and just make wooden flares now. It just looked like an upside down funnel really. And yeah... on that thick ass sidewall... if the flare isn't gradual enough, it'll split.

P4killer_ Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yea thats not a half bad idea. Just make the flare out of wood and mount it to straight pipe ftw. ill keep that in mind.

SMZ2 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 This is very interesting. I plan on running aero ports on my next box. I think it would be quite an experience to make them myself rather than get someone else to.

P4killer_ Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I mean if you need 6" or smaller just buy em online. its perfect, the can be easilly adjusted and or changed etc. but anything larger than 6", you gotta work it yourself. Ive seen a bunch of pics here and there of 8, 10 , 12" etc from pvc or alu.. , and even a few at shows here and there. But nothing really showing you how to do it etc. not that its hard or anything, buts its always easier with something to go off of. and learn from someone elses mistakes.

If I could easily make them myself that would definitely beat paying 100 or more for some pvc. Plus I could make extras to be interchangeable to change tuning for spl events.

P4killer_ Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 yea do it like taylor.. prolly way easier. although im willing to bet tomorrows hot oil go is going to be alllottt better. in that case hell pvc ftw, 2 min in a fryer, and bam flared. but wood is certainly more controllable. and that cement tubing can be found anywhere. i paid the guy $20 for 6 feet total 3ft of each, 10" and 8" so it wasnt that bad, but i also spent ya know $15 on a heat gun. 15 on two bowls, 15 on oil. and then theres the fiberglasss and bondo to come.. so quick tube would likely be a better option. but work with what ya got to get it done Setup: 2010 Hyundai Elantra Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000 Big 3. 2 Runs of +, 2 Runs of - DD M3b and 2 12" AQ HDC4s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
