I think no matter what i do i will coat everything with ceramic engine paint, i want the gray color that the aem comes in. I saw some at home deopt, said up to 1200 F, it won't get that hot in there.
First thing I did was throw an intake on my d16 engine. However, if you remove that resonator and stick with the stock airbox, you'll have the same results. What really restricts the air getting to the throttle body is the resonator box. I see people buying AEM intakes and stuff for 200 bucks and I dont understand it. It's a pipe. It's bent mandrel piping. Show me where one companies bent pipe is better than the next.
