WTB intake pipe

I'm interested in purchasing a nice, custom fit intake tube for a 2004 Aveo LS. I have a 3" diameter spectre cone filter on now so it must fit very well. I honestly just don't like the stock tube there now, and I would like it to be chrome, black or red to match the filter material.

of course I'm willing to work with the price a bit but I'm hoping for something between $30-$50.

If you have this item (or know where I can get one) Reply, or PM me for my cell phone number or other contact info that would better suit your needs.

Thank you and have a wonderful and magical day,
Akilli

head to autozone, get a spectre universal intake kit, its $39.99 I believe, and you'll have to cut it a few inches short to fit(I used a dremel and I think I cut about 6 inches or less off), also its a 3in intake so you might want to get a reducer to get it to fit, I never got a reducer and it held fine...heres a link

or follow aveosams how to for a CAI, its in the how-to section. think it was said to cost around 60$. its all preferencial in what u want and im not trying to persuade u one way or the other.

I tried that one from AutoZone and it didn't fit right. I would have had to have it cut and bent to fit in properly and thats more money I'd rather not spend. I was hoping someone might already have one done (used or new) and just wanting to make a few bucks off of it. I'll also look for that in the how-to section. thanks

Thank you though for the advice.

just borrow a sawz-all from a friend/nieghbor or whoever has one and cut it. then take a file and file the burs off. thats all ya gotta do. or look on ebay, theres a few there, but i dont know how good they are or if they even have a spot for the IAT sensor.

Yeah all it requires is a cut, I had it for awhile.

make sure you dont get the spectre plastic coated in chrome crap....that one in the link looks to have to small of angle bend, u would need a 45 degree bend like the bottom pipe in this picture

plus the 3" to 2.5" reducer which you is made by spectre and you can order online at summitracing.com.....now my pipe is from a cheap honda kit that I cut up. Now you would also need to drill a hole for the intake sensor and caulk it in

Or go to an exhaust shop and get them to bend you one in stainless and weld a tube to it. But that will be more expensive than the "Aveosam" option.

not to mention heavier

GSR Intake...1 cut cut and slight turn and another coupler and your golden.

I think I'll just have it cut twice...

about the sensors in the pipe, I managed to pull one out (not sure which one it was) but the other one didn't want to come out (it was the bottom one if that helps). any tips?

There's only 1 sensor. It's the IAT on the passenger side of the tube. The vapor line is on the top.
For the IAT, you have to remove a clip and unhook the harness. Then you can either a) cut the IAT out of the stock tube or b) buy a spare IAT for the new intake for ~$10.

so it just won't unplug? I have to cut it and buy a new one?

it will unplug, but the sensor itself is glued to the pipe. the only way to get it out is either cut the glue around it or get a new one.

oh ok, thx
