Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

Hey,

Mike told me to post here. Lomker brought my AMS intake for the X over to you guys to design the 3.5" version off of it.

He also said you were ordering piping to make 2 of them? You should take pictures and have MAP vendor them or something, I am sure others will want it on a side note.

Anyway, should I just drop off my flange when i get it, is there anything else you need?

Yes he dropped it off yesterday. We will be ordering piping to make 2 maybe more. And yes just drop the flange off as soon as you get it.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

Sweet, thank you sir. I will drop the flange off the day I get it.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

Well, you'd want to change it a fair bit from the AMS design first. I'm not worried about someone coming after me for a one-off, but...

ETS or someone will come out with one right after I pay for this. I'm always just a little ahead of where things are easy.

Only so many ways you can weld 2 aluminum bends together :)

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

My thoughts exactly...its 3.5" anyway, not like AMS offers that.

The flange will be late next week, just spoke with MAP.

Finished product.

Nice, now i have to go back when my car drives to get the ends rolled, looks awesome though!

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

thanks guys, we also have our own version of the MAF flanges coming out soon!

Thought I would transfer some of the pics from the product development thread to this one. The intakes come either polished (pics above posted by mlomker) or powder coated wrinkle black. Note that the blow off valve recirculation pipe location on the wrinkle black intake is for a special application, and is not the default location.

Looks very nice guys! Are you going to be offereing a heat shield with the intake? I know there is a problem i think with the AC on and no sheild for the X's.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

ETS finally released a 3.5" option a day or two ago. Only took them six months. :loser:

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

My AMS shield fits great still! :)

I made one but took it off. I've just never noticed an idle problem due to the fans. Now that I have cams I'll never know. lol.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

^True, cams have your idle high anyway, I have no reason to take mine off though, so it will stay.

You guys at Primo need to fix this:

No description of what is included and no picture. How am I supposed to talk up your shit when I don't know what is included in the production version? I've been handing out photos of my prototype but that doesn't really cut the mustard.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

That's not on Primo's end. That's MAP's. Their web designer needs to change that, and include the photos that have been posted of this product.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

The photos on this thread are of a custom application. I have yet to see photos of the production product. I know a few people have bought them since I live on the X forums.

Someone at MAP needs their ass kicked since it's costing Primo money. This is a need for a lot of people and ETS is the only competition. ETS is on the forums pushing their products and Primo is not. I like to help out but there's only so much I can do there.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

Im having the photos done tomorrow!
I will also call up MAP in the am to have this taken care of,
and to note, the kits include a K&N air filter, Silicon coupler from intake to turbo, and all necessary clamps.

Re: Evo X 3.5" Intake
 

I sent them the info on what is included and what options we have. I will have to let them know to change that. Thanks for catching that!
