thats all i need to know... thx ben ... at first i was just think that its only my head taht i think this think works....but i did some testin ... like drivin the same speed on roads that i travel everyday ... and i got my ans. ... this dodgy actually helps... and now i got sth word frmo u to suppost this haunted pipe... so i m a happy man .. thx ben :wave:

Hey, if you had the perfect materials it wouldn't be half as fun! I mean, pocket knife... garden piping... hey presto cold air intake! That's the way DIY should be.

Now you can use the rest of the piping for your DIY turbo. :p

you can buy that pipe without the holes.

with the holes its like you're sucking from a a leaky intake, with a nice loss of pressure, like a broken straw. most of the time the ram effect is not in use, or very little. so when you boot it, its takign in air because basically the engine wants that air.

any hole is big enough to effect the air pressure and or flow.

ok ben ... guess my pipe is not perfect... but i think the holes can help drainin out water.. incase water gets in

but in the end we are talking a 0.01 hp

If you gain 4 hp from $300 intake, or 2hp from a DIY Pipe its all very small. Little things here and there do affect hp but fuk all. I mean you could do a shit and your power/weight ratio would be improved more than an intake. Btw I think your intake is good as im a fan of DIY and experimenting than just handing someone $$$ and asking to make your car better.

love to all :)
