making a smog legal intake

[IDriftNaked]

I decided to do this since I live in california and i really dont want to have to swap engines just to pass smog every 2 years. i talked to a local smog place and the tech told me that the egr did have to be near the t.b. so i came up with an idea consisting of an evo 8 intake with the flange cut off to be welded to a dsm flange, and a daewoo egr pipe to transfer exhaust from the dsm egr port to the evo egr intake port.

I took pictures to help describe what im trying to do here


dsm intake (egr would be on the wrong side, if t.b. would be switched)


evo 8 intake (has tb and egr mount in correct location needed)


daewoo egr flex pipe


the evo flange would need to be chopped off for 3 reasons #1 the egr port is on the wrong side #2 the injectors mount on the intake rather than on the head of the 1st gens, and #3 the runners are too small for the head ports




the dsm intake flange would need to be cut off and welded to the evo intake runners


this is were the evo intake would need to be cut


this is were the dsm intake needs to be cut


this is were the egr pipe would need to be welded into on the dsm flange


this is were the egr pipe would connect to the evo intake


heres a mock up of how the egr pipe should be fitted to the dsm port


heres how the egr pipe should run to the evo egr port


any ideas on how to improve this would be greatly appreciated
thanks david
