Air intake mount?

[turbobooster]

Do the hotairs have some kind of factory mount that holds up the stock air intake tube near the MAF sensor and filter area? I ask becuz mine kinda droops down resting on top of wires and oil dip stick it's not an issue but was just wondering I I'm missing something thanx

Not that I know of, Factory the MAF connects to the air intake box. If you have a stock pipe intake( plastic) get yourself a metal or some kind of ABS intake> I have a spectre( autozone) intake pipe, Much better then stock IMO.

housing

There was a housing that mounted to the fender with a 90 off the top. It was small an didn't have a very large filter. looks like a square can with a spout and a flat piece of thin metal mounted to the side shaped like a triangle with bolt holes in it.

The air intake is held up by the maf...

The stock airbox has a mount that the maf bolts to with 2 bolts.

This is my dad's 85 designer series t-type

It is pretty close to stock, but it has a 86/7 maf bolted up and the holes are different and don't line up with the bracket.





Good luck,

IMO, the stock air box is junk. Get yourself a cone type filter, slap it on the MAF (dont descreen your MAF!) your done. The TR customs intake is very nice IMO, I had already made my own but if I knew about it I would have bought it

As for air filters, I will always say AEM dryflow brute force as 1st choice, K&N,S&B, Spectre are good also.

Another tip, if you do get a aftermarket intake, run the breather to the intake. Open breathers will be debated good/ bad. I don't like them myself after having mine oil soaked and cost me.
