Hey all,
Well I've finally put my custom EL style 3" intake together and definately looks the part. It's a combo of the EL rubber n plastic and some nice Spectre chrome pipe to complete the 3" flow all the way around. Certainly looks a far cry from the stock EF intake. Hopefully the different design helps the engine breathe better, even if its marginal. I had tried looking into custom bent metal piping but am thankful for settling on something far cheaper and does the trick non the different. Lovin the chrome too, just need a pod filter now ;) Before (stocko EF intake setup) After (Custom EL style 3" intake)
