anyone ever done it?

 

Done what, exactly? That's a carb in the picture.

 

sorry..shoulda been more specific...has anyone done a dual intake setup like that on a TPI?

 

do you mean dual cai? SLP use to make one but there rare and expensive now. At first i thought you ment two tpi intakes with 4 runners on each intake all on one engine, now that would be awesome

 

lol..yeah that would but yeah i mean a dual CAI setup..ive seen the k&n one but i wanna see custom made ones i guess....

 

anyyyyyyonnnnnneeee?????????

 

Wouldn't that require two MAF sensors tho? I'm sure that would be one HELL of a job reprogramming the ECU lol.. Better getting one bigger tube behind the headlight OR keeping the stock one (which is fine for TPI no?)

 

If it's SD it should be doable without too much issue. I'd take a piece of 3" and make a merge. It will be roughly 4". I would guess it would be a custom piece. That being said it's the price you pay for being cool and different.

I've thought a cool design would be to do a set of TPI runners up where they were cut off at a 90 degree angle roughly like a Lingerfelter intake (instead of doing a 180 like stock) and then doing 2 plenums/TBs instead. Doubt it would be any more functional just look neat. Throw a set of stock Vortec/LS1/whatever TBs on there and call it a day.

 

ehh...ls1 swap = i want
ive heard this can be a BIG power increase tho...i HEARD 30+hp

 

forgot about this thread..anyone have any?

 

Well some of the camaros have a dual snorkel CAI factory that draws from in front of the radiator, the airbox is basically y shaped, so it only needs one MAF, its the setup my car has on it, unfortunately, I do not think they work with the firebirds because of hood clearance or something, but you could probably adapt one to work somehow.

 

irocdennis used that on a carb, something like that on a tpi would be like the slp cold air induction

 

havent seen anyone do a true dual plenum/tb setup but i'd love to try it. Just not sure how you'd do that electronically and mechanically on the linkage.

I dont see the advantage in dual CAI... just run one big tube to the side. Packaging is only reason i can see a dual intake setup...two smaller pipes are easier to route in the engine bay

 

well, i was thinking like how the SLP CAI is but with the MAF like how its positioned on the camaros Y Box..

 

here ya go.

 

Looks like that setup requires relocation of the battery and deletion of the charcoal canister.

 

And a change in the upper rad hose.

 

I want! Would it be possible to take multiple stock intakes and fabricate something like that?

Also, could you get a photo of the underside of the driver's side so we can see the routing on the upper radiator hose?

 

I've seen it done on Fieros more than once:

 

i think dynodon would be able to make one....

spoke to him a whileeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee back about something like this
