I have seen intake pipes like the one in the picture below at Repco for just over $100.

not all autobarn stores stock them, but we can certainly get them. if they wont look, theyre not trying hard enough.

great post on understanding forced induction mate!!!!

It's funny really how everyone including my dog knows what a turbo/supercharger is, ofcourse it's a little thing that bolts onto your smaller engine and magicly makes it go like a big one but only a handfull of those people have an actual full understanding of how it works and what is entailed in making such a modification work properly.

Great post mate!!!
