Intake On The Cheap

Kastley85891 · 07-13-2010, 11:34 AM

I ran these a while back wth HKS drop ins and noticed it was a bit more willing and smoother as expected.
To me it was 200 bucks v 400 + for a CAI, made sense coupled with keeping the stock MAF I knew exactly where my fuel was.

Then I made these.

LunaZ where did you order the smooth Cobb tubes? They seem easy enough to swap with the stock ridged tubes yea?

Wish that were the case man, but it appears they have stopped producing the black version for whatever reason, and no vendors have them left in stock. My car theme is going to be blackout, wanted to keep it that way in the engine bay so I'm trying not to compromise that with blue tubes.

In another thread people have confirmed that the black post-MAF tubes for the G37 are exactly the same and to go ahead and just order those. Will be calling COBB tomorrow.

No luck unfortunately, no more black for the G either. I posted in the classifieds to see if somebody would sell me theirs or even swap with me if I purchased the blue set.

It almost looks like you modded a second set of Cobb's. Did you do any additional mounting?

What was your total cost as pictured?
