They wanted about $120 I think for the 6G74 (Diamante) Intake manifold and TB, when I bought my entire motor (including those things) for $450 from LKQ lol. They would have been $240 by themselves on a normal day!

There is a junkyard about an hour away from me that has a $20 sale every 2 or 3 months. You pay $20 for whatever you can carry across the scale. It doesn't matter if you stack it on a hood or in a bookbag.

^^^ I would love to go there, salvage yard around here tries to get rich off one customer. He has a stupid $35 minimum sale sign up, so guess how much he wanted for an exhaust hanger??? I told him I could get it new for ten bucks online. He took the 10 bucks in the end, he may as well have since he took 20 mins to get it out and I was not about to give him $35.

Tried to install my wierd looking HID kit & it doesn't work. Guess I'll be ordering a kit from DDM Tuning...

I buy name brand stuff and ebay stuff but a intake is just piping to me its hard to screw up on a intake. I live in a rain forest lol dont worry unless the filter gets submerged in water but try to avoid water in the first place. You can turn it into a short ram buy taking off the last bend.

**E_Emerson88** · 04-05-2011, 05:23 PM

wood grain + carbon fiber + hella flush is very mismatched IMO.
