i just recently bought a fujita CAI and it connects to the old plastic piping of the stock intake. is there anyway to get that giant plastic intake manifold or w.e it is out??? maybe a part that replaces it thats chrome/metal??? can i go to autozone n get piping to connect to it?? any have an idea??

vid has whats on my car. props to Delta2.2 for the vid.

 

are you serious? thats how it connects?

wow..that's horrible


try returning it and getting an injen or k&n or even the GMPP one

 

to be honest with you may be able to go to auto zone and get a 90% bend and like a 3'' straight but im not really sure but i think it is possible i got a weapon r sr intake and it came with the 90 bend

 

the intake has to stay. i cant return it. (not the senders rules, its my rules). so its stayin. i was thinkin autozone, especially since my friend made his one CAI with autozone piping. just get enough straights to get over there and then a 90. anyone know whats under the plastic??? would autozone piping work?

 

autozone piping will work, but it will heat up quiker, i kjow, i had a custom one made by that piping, it was cool and all, but after ab it of criving i could pop the hood and touch it and it'd be really hot, not w/my GMPP i drive around for a while, i pop the hood, and the most it'll be is warm...its the quality of the piping, but i mean, yeah it'll work

 

well just for that short section. the rest is the fujita cai.

 

dude thats a Cobalt SS Fujita intake. You bought the wrong one. The 2.2L intake has the full piping. Sorry.

 

indeed.

kinda cool that he made it work.

 

something like this might work,, but yeah,, I think you bought the SS/SC intake,, I replaced what you still have,,

 

 

that's actually not a bad idea.

the factory box isn't that much of a restriction, but the silencer on the other part may slow down flow..

 

yeahh I deleted that a long time ago...

 

did it help?

 

well when I was stock,, the car shifted form 2 to 3 about 70mph (I have an auto), now with the delete, kn drop in, and the custome intake,, it shifts about 74mph... so yeah,, I think it helped.. also the dyno seat, says it has better throttle response, and great sound btw, but no real dyno yet...

 

Wow the does bot look half bad there.

 

any 1/4 mile diff?

i mean, an intake shouldn't make a world of change, i'm just curious

 

never gone to the track on this car.. sorry...

 

i dont know, from what ive seen the fujita connects to the stock resonator.

another picture...............

 

what did you get to do that?

 

na i bought the 2.2 fujita. i ordered it from thmotorsports on here. he sent me the checkout info and it deff said fujita cai for 2.2l. and even if i did get an ss, it works and i paid like $60 less. lol

 

this is how i done mine

 

did ur intake start out like mine??? where it connected to the old plastic? and then u got metal for the rest of the piping to connect to the manifold right?

 

thats the intake for the 2.2. yeah and i would have liked to know that it was half of what was needed to make it a full intake from the starte.

 

yea i know. it wooda been nice. well when the paycheck gets here i guess ill head on over to autozone.

 

all you need is a 90 degree bend and a 6" straight pipe, thats it, those 2 pieces should work, umm, i remmeber right, pep boys carries the pieces sepretely...autozone only has the whole 40 thing, atleast here in austin they only have the whole thing, they dont sell the individual pieces
