^Precisely.

There is one of the local sportbike guys here that does custom CF work. So since I don't really care about that body kit anyway, I'm going to open a big hole and have him build me a CF velocity stack.

[blueapplesoda]

add a stack to the hole...maybe use the stock one and make it work

Where did you graduate from? Who are you employed with? How did Statics treat you?

statics... really.

if you cant get out of statics with atleast a B dont bother going on.
wait for dynamics and then later on vibrations.

E36s have this shit stock yo!

so....what improvements could i do to this cai idea? I can't improve if no one tells me what to improve on. I'll try to get some temp reading at the opening, end,and filter. I know that just a heat shield alone makes it so the filter stays cool to touch. so some more outside air shouldn't hurt.

What you're doing is just about like the setup on the 96 and back Dodge Dakota's had. But they had a plate to deflect the air from going straight into the hole for the air intake. And the hole was in the core support just behind the grill. I found that i had alot of bugs smashed onto my air cleaner with the plate removed, kind of like what you have with the hose hooked straight to the grill.

it isn't a bad idea, i did something similar to my CIS-E Motronic A-2 jetta a while ago. it is hard to say if i made a big difference or not, but it surely couldn't have hurt either

But 5 year olds can speak English better than you.

[Edev]

wow, go away, you dont even have an e30, and you say the same exact thing every post, I'm doing a 5 speed swap. my e30 runs amazing and i really want to start rallying an e30 so i'll be getting anther one pretty soon, I've driven plenty of manual cars and there all tons of fun but I got my e30 as an auto so oh well. the lot(pontiac) i got the car from said it had a shift kit, but its most likely just a drilled valve body. at least i can enjoy my e30 for what it is, its my reliable DD and i love it. and before you say it, yes i'm going to keep the bottle caps.

amen brotha. do what you wanna do.

I really am taking engineering and ive taken drafting for the past 4 years.

[kid325e]

haha.

z31maniac im not digging that front bumper at all. But your brake duct idea is balls.

[bimmer_E30]

At least he can do math.

Kinda.
