Airaid intake tube

 

And my seats, these are CR1 corbeau seats. My review would start with, very high quality, nice style, leather feels good. These seats say they are designed for up to 36" waist, I would have to disagree. I have a 32" waste, 5' 10" tall, with a stocky build. These seats are very tight on me from top to bottom, I'm trying to decide if the are a little too tight. They either fit me perfectly or they are slightly to small. Very comfortable, I feel like these are comparable quality to my gt500 recaro seats.

If you have a 34-36" I don't see how you fit in these. However they do have these in a wide option.

 

Oh and I got a shelby American trans air scoop.

 

Nice looking piece!

I may have to swing by to pick one up since they are only

10 minutes from me . .

Kinda nice: Full-Race 30 minutes

Airaid 10 minutes

Maybe if I drive the EcoProject by they will do a custom . . LOL

 

Ya I meant to comment before, your frickin lucky to be that close to full race, and airaid too, bada**!

 

Never understood why they would cut out the center with CS. It kind of defeats the purpose of chaneling all of the air up to the trans. I think the Boss 302 would be better. Any thoughts?

Lol, funny I was thinking the same thing a couple nights ago. Not sure how much it will matter but it could.

 

Ok I do have a thought. Yes some air will come out the logo assuming there is positive air pressure inside the scoop. If it was unobstructed air flow instead, air would follow the path of least resistance simply passing over the hole. With that said the Shelby scoop is much wider than the boss 302 scoop. If some air is lost through the hole it should still flow as much or more air than the boss, IMO.

I don't think this was a very smart way to add the logo.

 

Maybe CS stands for Cool Scoop.
Something is always better than Nothing.

 

I dig it! So with it installed I see that the CS hole might serve a purpose. It looks like this might be the only way for the heated air to escape, it fits pretty tight against the tranny. In hindsight I'm not sure how this $100 part can do very much at all for cooling, maybe but I doubt it.

 

So I've been doing lots of work but not a lot of posting. The water lines to the trunk are mostly insulated and run, oil change on the engine, seats installed and insulated the cold water tank. Most importantly I got a section of the intake piping done and the hood shuts!

 

The airaid piece did not fit properly for the mustang, it was sticking up too far. I had to rotate the piece back and down to make it fit. I had to add a 45 degree coupler to the left side connection for it all to hook up, I was really lucky that worked perfectly.

 

I'm putting an aluminum 4" 45 degree on the end of the airaid, then attaching a huge airaid air filter on the end of that. I'll have to weld mass airflow sensor bung in to the aluminum 4" 90.

 

wonderful thread. Subscribed!

The seats seem very attractive, especially if they are close to recaro seats!

 

Your running a water/ice chest in the back that supplies the intercoolers? Do you have a heat exchanger to?

 

Thanks! They are close but I wouldn't trade my recaro seats for them. For half the price not bad at all.

Yes I have a dual fan afco gt500 heat exchanger mounted up front, with 2 intercoolers, and 2 pumps.

 

What pumps? What size hoses?

 

I used 3/4" heater hose which I insulated, a rule 2000 pump in the reservoir and a 2012 gt500 pump mounted in the front. The pumps are in series, I should get decent flow. Once everything is running I'll check the gpm to make sure it's enough. If it's not I'll buy a 2014 gt500 pump which is more expensive but flow lots more and replace the 2012 pump.

 

I still need to make a bracket to mount the tank.

 

The Rule flows 5.2gpm through a 3/4" line with a IC and HE.

The 2012 GT500 Bosch flows 5.1gpm through a 3/4" line with a IC and HE.

If you compound boost the two you will maybe see 1gpm more.

How much boost will you be running?
