Hi all,

Just wanting to get a custom intake plenum and also a cover for my air filter made up.

I want like a aluminium cover to go over the top of my filter (to sorta hide its defectableness) that is similar to this:

I am looking for someone local... so please don't suggest western mufflers :p

Any assitance appreciated.

Cheers!
 
Cael,

You are going down the fairly powerful N/A route... If you are considering splashing out the cash for an intake plenum then consider this:

Twin throttle bodies, or even quads (yes a tad more expensive). At the end of the day the dollars spent on a custom intake mani will not warrant any real performance gains.

Another option would be to simply polish your current one. Im assuming that the look of the factory cast is what you are attempting to get rid of? A couple of hours of my time, and $100 or so later from a polishing shop and this was the end result of mine:

With polish still on the runners:

Installed, clod morning minimal shine:

Option 3: There may be some places over in NZ that have an off-the-shelf item..?
