Ok I got some pics tonight after I changed the coupler that holds the intake to the throttle body. There is still one yellow hose, but I'll be getting rid of that soon enough. Also, you'll see that there are two clamps hooked together holding the intake near the filter. This is also a temporary fix until I can build a bracket to support it. It doesn't need one because it sits there fine, but I don't like it not being fastened down.

Looks pretty cool! thats a 5speed right?

by **l8nitr01** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 6:06 pm

Yep. It's a 5 speed.

I would imagine the HP gains with this are the same as with an injen sri, since this looks almost exactly like an injen minus the logo, and the tubing is the CORRECT size.

Looks like a great solution much better than the injen intake. Probably about the same performance for the price. All you need to do is build a bracket.

That looks like a decent intake for the price tha only draw back I can see is it is not carb legal do you have a part # I voteto add this to the aftermarket parts listing

by **Midias** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 7:22 pm

I will add it in tonight

The invoice I got lists the item number as OBX Racing #OB10353. Not sure if this is the OBX number or the Tuning Depot number. I went to the OBX Racing Web site and I couldn't find it listed. Anyway, I got it from
TuningDepot.com
P.O. Box 159
San Bruno, CA 94066
phone number: (650)228-1461
It was $60.00 and $15.00 to ship. Those of you in CA might not have to pay as much for shipping.

by **D-money** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 8:28 pm

Nothing on the box?

by **Midias** » Tue Jul 07, 2009 8:35 pm

I will use that part number for now.

for anyone who is interested here is one more on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-Shor ... ccessories
I contacted seller for more info

Midias I know this is off topic, but I also have a Ralco RZ short throw shifter. I didn't see that in the Aftermarket Upgrades Sticky. The part number is 914938. It is made well and it is pretty much the same specifications of the TWM. Might be worth adding. I got it from ultrarevcom ebay member. It appears that they still have some left. The auction is:

The asking price is $99.00 but I offered them $63.05 and they took it. Might be able to get one cheaper than that.
