FD3S RX7 AutoEXE Carbon Fiber intake Install

- Arguably the best looking intake available for the FD RX7 while being totally functional.
This one luckily was still in production at the time I made the video. Many of the other similar intakes like the impossible to find Mazdaspeed or Kinightsports use a very similar design, but you can't buy them new any longer.

Great video! I have an rx7 heading to me soon, it’s shipping over. It has this kit fitted! So really cool to see this.
Nice. I see more and more of these things being imported
Thank you for making these! I have the same intake and it came with my car. Good to see all the things you did to tinker with it. Keep it up!
Neat! I'd love to get the same intake for my Efini. Also, regarding microphone setup. You can get wireless mics from Godox (Magic XT-1) for around 100 bucks. There are two in set and are magnetic so you can just stick one in the engine bay and keep the other one inside. You can even plug them into a Phone if that's what you record with.
Thanks for that info, I'll be looking into that. I've been trying to figure out way to make my audio better in the videos. The MIC I have leaves a lot to be desired so this is great information. In the car, I use a inta360 camera
The dei gold foil actually works pretty well apparently. The baking action from the radiator fans on the bottom of the intake could be mitigated with it. Although..... the air is probably moving fast enough through that where it won't matter
The gold stuff works great, I would use it on aluminum components but like you mentioned, I don't think its needed on the carbon because of the velocity of the air like you mentioned. Still not a bad idea to go overkill with heat mitigation, I just don't want the gold in my engine bay if I can help it. Trying to keep the OEM+ look. The 240 on the other had really needs some better heat management which I'll be addressing int he future
very informative, ill take a set of those cf pipes when you make them
Keep it up. I'm still watching.
My gawd, thank you so much for making these!
good info, i've been considering one of these
do you need a tune after the install？
@yapoka1 no. The main thing to worry about when modifying an FD with bolt ons that will cause you to need a tune is opening up the exhaust. If you install a high flow cat, you risk the chance of boost creep and overboosting what the stock computer was tuned for. I will be demonstrating this in future dyno videos as I keep acquiring the parts
@@touchedbyawankel thanks.. btw what do you think of u type intercoolers? Like pwr or knights sport u type intercoolers. I think they are very interesting and there are not many reviews about them on the internet.
@yapoka1 i love them. I'm planning on getting the Aussie pwr one down the road with the knightsports as a backup since I'm planning on staying with a SMIC.
@@touchedbyawankel Nice! Looking forward to see you post a video about this!
