Another custom intake
 
OK like many people out there spending $200 on a intake is crazy. so I made my own. Used a AEM intake off my 1990 accord that just stop running on Xmas dayAnd a intake 90 elbow from pepboys.(I know getto). Took the lower resonator out and used the stock box(with K&N filter). It sound really deep(not ricey) and I can def. see a improvement in throttle responce.I will post pics when I figure out how LOL.:D
