I like what you have done with the airbox mounted down low and then connecting a snorkel tube to it.

Interestingly, when the military wants to find the best solution to a problem, they submit proposals to different contractors. The contractors then attack the problem and submit their answer. Sometimes the government picks one over the other and sometimes it incorporates ideas from the different designs.

I feel like we are going in the same direction. Let's attack the air induction box first as well as finding a suitable filter that will fit in. I am beginning to think that a cylindrical filter like Comptech used on its Icebox might be the best compromise.

Thanks again! The pictures I posted at one part it says VV Doesn't fit =/ meaning that the F5 Fujita filter doesn't fit. Well I think we have the 2 ways we could go with piping, but as you said we DO need to figure out what filter fits in what box.

I strongly believe that we don't want to make anymore bends of air flow than already exist in the system, nor do we want to make anymore air flow bends than necessary, so first things first is that the front of the filter, the unopened end should face where the air is coming from, like my drawing on the last post with all the pictures. That way air is sucked right in. I really think that the comptech box for the unknown acura is the best one yet.


That way our MAF Housing can be incorporated!!

That's what I did with my airbox. Dremeled out the interior and fiberglassed it for a DAMN smooth flow. Now we have to figure out a box to fit a filter in!
