looked at a powerpipe and then fabbed my own. I run a sheetmetal shop, so the fab was easy It might not flow as well as a powerpipe because its all mandrel bends,but none the less i made mine from flat sheets of metal just measured to the existing 3" hole in the fender made an 4" elbow then welded a 4" diameter 3" offset then welded another 4" elbow that turned me into the fender with a 4" straight pipe then mass air meter with filter I can take a picture and post it for you. do you have any info on the cam?

good to hear the DIY pipe worked. also yes the f-cam works pretty good on a forced air car.

Nice boost gains. I picked up 6psi when coupled with the 2.95 pulley(the stock 94-95 intake setup is very, very restrictive). A custom cam is your best blower cam. But the TFS-1 and 2 work well too.
