Thank you for getting us this latest update, and once again thank you for this great GB that we got to take advantage of.

This should not tarnish xl8r image at all... Josh has been the man!! i have bought damn near everything for my car from him... best prices and great service... not his fault that PasswordJDM didnt make there deadline.. xl8r is a seller not the maker.. so at least give him that doubt that he is doing what he can...

let the tube dangle it shouldn't hurt anything a friend of mine had frankin-stien motor in his EG hatch he ripped the tube off a long long time ago and the car still running strong hitting high 12's in the 1/4 mile too

Sanmiglite · 09-15-2009, 05:58 PM

Thats what i did. Let the tube dangle.

***tehcodeman*** · 09-15-2009, 06:01 PM

Anyone know if we could just cap off the valve inlet?

USMC0317 · 09-15-2009, 06:04 PM

Yeah does sound like a better idea then to just let it hang, the chances of it burning on something, and then stinking is not a result I want.

cuzzybubba1 · 09-15-2009, 06:17 PM

I'm just suprised during the R&D they came to the conclusion a port was not needed.

(I'm no mechanic by any means.)

Sanmiglite · 09-15-2009, 06:18 PM

Pw told me its better to let it dangle than put a cap.

***Bandit03*** · 09-15-2009, 06:20 PM

how does it perform?

I'll probably do this. Or filter the end of the hose to keep dust out of my valvetrain.

That doesn't make sense to let it pull in hot, dirty, unfiltered air from your engine bay.

then put one of those tiny filters on the hose or take the hose off and put the tiny filter on the engine

soxfan · 09-15-2009, 07:10 PM

so does it come with install instructions?

Sanmiglite · 09-15-2009, 07:14 PM

Heres my initial review. Throttle response is a lot better compared to my old intake. Im at work now. Ill post pics later tonite. I need to calibrate my maf as well coz my fuel trims is a little bit off. No big deal. As far as quality. Its ok. Ima try to polish it later. Material wise, its really thin. Looks like its gona crack. I guess thats why the intake is really light.

drivelikeyoustoleit · 09-15-2009, 07:16 PM

hummmmmmmm interesting

Sanmiglite · 09-15-2009, 07:17 PM

The intake comes with everything you need. The only modification i did was trim the coupler. Still cant figure out why pw did not put another hole. Looks like im gona buy a small filter for the valve cover.

Sanmiglite · 09-15-2009, 07:18 PM

My friend is picking up his intake now. Im gona ask him to
chime in. Its gona be later though coz our mechanic will custom relocate his battery.

^Thanks for keeping us updated!
