Have you decided which way you are going?

I think he is implying that he was going to purchase a FWI from INTENSE, but is reconsidering due to communication issues (whether or not they actually exist is another thing).

And Bill, thanks again for making me covet the elusive ADTR intake... :P

if you must talk to Todd, his business e-mail is ToddA at INTENSE-Racing dot com. he answered all my e-mails promptly.
well what I was saying is rouge (todd?) never got back to me after my last round of questions... its kinda a moot point now though as the money has been reappropriated to find another endavour.
but the good news is I am actually going to try and fab up a short ram this weekend. Nothing fancy, and the actual intake pipe I am using is a FREEBIE so I figured, what the hell. Ill keep yall posted.
Donor intake was originally for a late model Civic Si/RSX Type * if you were wondering.

OK quick question... I just read the 11 page rice pipe thread for the third time looking for coupler info. I see several mentions of (tight fitting) 3.5-3in couplers and 4-3in couplers, but my measurements show I need a coupler with 3.75 inside diameter on the throttle body side.
I wont mind if you tell me where I can buy a special one, but im doing this as cheap as possible fellas.

Very high quality products on this website. I have used them in the past, and I was completely satisfied.

I used a 3"-3.5" reducer from boostcontroller.com and had no problems stretching it over the '96 throttle body. The 4" reducer I originally bought was too big. Good luck and enjoy the whine.
You want cheap but effective, try PVC. And stick with 3" inside diameter and a 3.5" rubber coupler to the TB.

That'* when I had my '93. I noticed marked improvements after I did that, and I spent all of $10. Also, you don't want 3.5". You'll actually slow the flow. 3" will increase velocity.
Example: Turn on a water hose. Then plug the opening half-way, the velocity increases, the water moves faster. The same applies for the intake tube.
