I have a 95 TA with a vortech SQ-trim supercharger. I live in florida so it rains a lot. The intake, being down near the tire well, got water into it and cracked my engine blocked along with demolishing two rods. I would like to get some sort of intake that doesnt go near the ground so it will be protected from future water damage. I am aware that the air i get up higher will be hotter and give less hp, but less horsepower is worth not having to buy yet another engine. Please let me know of any kits or something for a different intake you know of or a website/phone number for a place that could fabricate one. Thanks.

This may not help much, but I know the import crowd is big with these:

If its too much of a pain to relocate your pickup point, maybe one of these can be employed somewhere. It sounds like it definatly would have saved your mill.

We make this intake for the Procharger guys, perhaps we could make something for you that works better. This is just our prototype. The actual unit is a little more cleaner looking.

Thanks! The prototype is actually a bit bulky with filler material...for my liking, but I had to do that because the material is so thin. In some places you may notice it is wide, this is walking the cup or others may call it stitch welding...trying to tie the 2 thin pieces together. :)

I'll post more pics of other work we've done. Thanks again for the compliment!
