PDM Intake

This question is more for BAN SUVs since he brought me aware of the PDM intake, but if anyone else knows the anwser feel free to say it. I was looking at the picture on the website, and it looked like it just went to the hole in fender, but the engine shot, it looked like it went down like a CAI. Whats up?? Is it more of a short ram than a CAI, or is there more piping they didnt show?? Also if anyone has experience with this intake, id like to know what you think/thought about it.

It's a pipe that runs from the stock airbox to a hole into the fender. It's not as good as the Cobb, but for $55 it's high bang-for-the-buck.

Yup. It doesn't extend down into the fender well. PM DDMan for more details about the 3" mod as well. He has a PDM, I actually have a Ganzflow, which is almost the same thing.

PDM Intake

I installed a PDM Racing intake over the Cobb because I wanted to retain the OEM air box and did not want lose any low end torque. I also dropped a K&N filter and I'm satisfied with the results. PDM intake fits in the fender well and they supply a blue split hose that wraps around the fender hole, which prohibits the pipe from rattling. Installed eight months ago, no problem.

Yup...It was my 1st mod for the car....deifinately made the car louder

And theres got to be 1HP somewhere in there.

I also just did the 3" TB mod (as BanSUV's just said) about 2 months ago and so far so good with no ill effects.

The Pipe is pretty much a 3" alum. pipe that goes from the opening on the filter box to the hole in the fender. It stops about 2" into the fender (maybe less)

This may be stupid, but i took off that big ol' holding container. Cause it just seemed like it was doing nothing. I drove the car without it on, and it still felt fine, ccept theres a lil bit more sound now. But im still going to get that pipe soon. On another note, my brother is all jealous of my car cause i can pretty much keep on with him, and he has 35 more horse power than me. He has a 97 prelude.
