mrwigglezdj Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 i dont see where it would hurt anything, other than look out the norm (not chrome) and as long as it did not get close to something really hot. go for it, i say think of it like this , you see the ricer intakes and look into one, they do not have rifleing (lines) inside the tube to "mix" or create a vortex with the moveing air so pvc would do exactly the same thing as they are Quote Americas loudest work van2006 iasca heavyweight bassboxing champion at 150.4 db with 60second average TL8 memphis PR15s,12 memphis PR6.5's coax,4 memphis PR 1inch tweets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PVC would work, and be sure top keep heat as low as you can around the PVC as it can melt once it get to a certian degree. or if you want, you can go to a local store like autozone, kragen and etc.. and see if they have the the universal intake tube. fine one that is simlar to your car then cut as you need to get it fit..

They sell the mock-up kit to see what pieces/parts you will exactly need, and Spectre reimburses you for it. Quote Derp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
