Plenums?? PORN???
 

Ok you guys, I've been wondering lately about what to use in my intake as a plenum for my ka24de intake, you know, those huge fucked up looking bastards, anyways, I want to do something like this:
Attachment 19870
So, I was thinking about what material to use and it came to my mind yesterday as we were working on a cobra at the shop, why the hell not use a alum driveshaft?????? Anybody done it? yes? not? Maybe use steel and for instance take a fire extingiesher (however that spells)????? Perhaps too thin? Tell me what you guys think.


































Oh, yeah, here you go:

I usually just get stuff form here.
http://www.velocityair.cc/ It's cheap, and you can get the sizes you need easy.

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

driveshaft or a fire extinguisher?
you do realize that by exerting force on metal you can cause it to bend :1

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

roll your own plenum :6

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

Fencepost. If Complex can make an exhaust manifold out of it, no reason you can't do the opposite and make an intake manifold.

this will be mated to HKS itbs

Ooooh, high buck. :y:

I saw pictures of a Neon engine with a fire extinguisher plenum once. I saved them, but I think that was before my hard drive crash. :1

Dude's got some skills. :y:

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

why not some velocity stacks, flushed against a flat piece of aluminum, then take some sheet alum and tack it on one side of flat alum, and bend to other side then tack. half round intake plenum.

does that make sense?

Like in my first pic? 'cause that's what I was planning first.

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

I don't get it :1, what in the hell do you mean?
Anyways, yeah, I think I'm going to go with the extinguisher:

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

nice idea.

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

extinguisher would be sick if you kept the nozzle and powdercoated it that same red after :y

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

That fire extinguisher intake really tops it all. omg

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

Yeah, I'm definately doing this. I'm going to find a large aluminum flange thick enough to weld it to the runners, cut it the right size, get a long maybe about 4-5" thick extinguesher and cut it, not in half, but a little bit more than half, and weld all the original flanges from all the sensors on the intake on the half cutted extinguisher. Then weld it to the flange. Maybe I won't cut the exting. Wouldn't welding the all-round exting. give you better flow? Any ideas on that? Here's some inspiration for you to get me some ideas:

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

Fire Extinguisher manifold FTW. That's pretty tough.

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

makes me want to get two of them and do a dual pleumn lol

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

i mean as in ------- bending a flat peice of metal you can turn it into a curved peice of metal :1 :S

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

What's wrong with that? I request an explanation on that. I mean if I freaking apply force to something is because I want to bend it ain't it?

Re: Plenums?? PORN???
 

how about this? No flange in between the runners and the plenum, just likt that neon's:
