OBX CAI **UPDATE PIC**

Post by Silver2gn4me » Fri Jan 20, 2006 9:16 pm

I just got mine today. Does anybody have one?? It came with 2 pipes. I cant figure out if the little pipe replaces to bellows tube or is a extension for the main pipe? It is not straight like other intakes. It has a little bend to it. I can try to post pics tomorrow night if that would help. I just want to know if someone has it and can help me with this. Thanks!!

Here you can see the bellow tube replacement. What you guys think?? They also have to send me 1 more coupler with clamps. Hope that will be here this week so I can install on Friday.

Sounds like you got a magnum intake. The magnum intake manifolds have a bend in them and thats what that short piece with the bend in it sounds like it is for.

That I'm not sure of, you can probably get it to work with some effort but someone else on the boards should have a better idea than myself.

Yea I will post pics this Friday. I got it through my work, Discount Tire Company. It only cost me like $60. I have their catalog at work and they have a bunch of stuff in their for us. Intake manifolds, tb spacers, exhaust, header,etc.... I can get that stuff CHEAP too. So I guess nobody has one yet. Il let you know how it goes Friday.

Install complete!! They did not send clamps with the coupler, so I went to Lowes and bought a black coupler with clamps. I also need a longer breather hose. Other than that Went pretty good. Fit is pretty good, even with the bent bellows tube. On par with the AEM I had on my other 2gn. I will have pics tomorrow. Now I need to get some red or black couplers, the yellow it came with has got to go!!!
