How do you support the intake pipe? I installed the speed element filter with the maf studs built into it and it just rests on my upper intercooler pipe. I cant go back to the stock air box or anything like that because I have the ETS short route UICP. Is there a braket that I can buy or something I can make so the filter wont rest on my IC piping?

 

the only way to fix that is to get a metal intake pipe

 

Looks like I'll keep it the way it is and just try to build something so I can bolt it down. I just removed my AEM intake since it was giving me issues and fit like crap.

 

i think it just sits there...

 

I made a support made of strip metal that you can bend. Bolt one end on one of the maf bolt and the other end to the boost solenoid mount.

 

Thats a good idea. I think i have some 4'x1" aluminum strips and i'll make my own lil bracket out of it. Thanks for sharing your idea, I really appreciate it.

 

I need to come up with something like that. My filter currently just chills and hangs.

Gunhaha^^ Very creative. I'm going to try that. I also have the OMG speedelement filter and it just sits there. I've had it like that for months.

 

Perrin makes a little heatshield mounting bracket thing that works with both the stock intake pipe and their silicone pipe.

 

mine just rests on the metal frame piece with some padding under it

 

just curious, what filter is that?

 

^ That is a Amsoil Filter

 

Doesnt look like you have an ETS upper intercooler pipe... Nice fix tho..

 

I have the amsoil filter on the stock intake pipe and I got mine to fit just inside the acd reservoir without bending the bracket so it sits in there just fine and doesnt move around at all.

 

pretty creative i just have my perrin filter resting on my windsheild res
