I 3d printed a custom intake for my 350z on a Bambu Lab X1 carbon.

Funny how YT recommends this to me right when i'm designing/printing myself a front lip for my wrx, lol

Heck yeah! You going to make a video for it?

I've used Taulman 910 alloy Nylon. The intake crosses directly above the exhaust manifold with nothing in between it and the 3" intake I printed. Zero issues.

Great job! Nice look too. If your worried about heat warping it see if you can add a heat shield below it and back it with some heat blocking materiel? Ive used a welding blanket riveted to the back of a shield once that held well. I was testing to see if I can keep a custom intake box cooler with it by shielding it from the engine heat. It did work but not to clean looking so I gave up after a while. I spent too much time on it and ignoring everything else.

Yeah that would work, the abs holds up surprisingly well...but could also go to a nylon or other high temp filaments

I printed mine in ASA and used 3 walls 10% infill but modeled the intake tube to have thicker wall. So outer was 3 wall inner was 3 walls with infill affectively a 3-5mm thickness

I made one for my Frontier nearly the same as yours and it is much more rigid, it has been on my truck for nearly 9 months now with no problem.

@@EndMotive there for sure is a learning curve. I have a Ender 5 plus I use specifically for high temp so I had to dial it in and I definitely messed up some prints at first. But it’s 100% worth it when it comes to printing car parts. The main issue for me was bed adhesion. But I made an enclosure for it and just use blue tape on the bed and haven’t had issues.

That great sensation when you start the engine after a crazy mod and there's no check engine light... 🕺🏻

@MafiZed Жыл бұрын

You are defeating the purpose of a velocity stack by having a small to large taper afterwards, the air slow's down as the pipe expands.

@BreezyYacht-o1l 3 ай бұрын

maybe not an entire intake but I did 3d print a coupler in order to fit my air filter onto a ford intercooler tube that had a bung for my IAT sensor. Was wondering if you had a chance to see how ABS reacted to the engine bay heat over time.

@EndMotive 3 ай бұрын

Nice! The heat didn't seam to be an issue, however It did form a leak that caused a check engine light.

Awesome vids. Your title is incomplete though! I think the thumbnail being a side by side shot of the 3D model and the intake on the car could generate a lot of clicks too.

Great try! I am in the process to make a manifold using carbon filled polycarbonate and then also skinning it with carbon fiber, it would be a little hard to do that on the inside tho.It has heat set inserts for holes

@EndMotive 8 ай бұрын

Thanks! I would like to try making a manifold too, definitely more involved! The inside you could always use a thin epoxy to smooth everything out and give it a little extra integrity.

This might be a weird question but on a day of it were like 20c - 25c what temps to most engine bays get too? I have found abs can be good for 100c. Which I don’t believe my engine bay has ever felt that hot. And with the weather lately in Australia iv touched metal parts of my pod filter and it’s not even hot to touch. Also iv seen that ASA ApolloX is good

@EndMotive 4 ай бұрын

I do believe I tested the under hood temps in the summer but I can not remember what they were. I lived in Las Vegas which hits 118f (48c) in the summers and it did just fine with the heat, well...it was maybe a little soft but not enough to cause issues. ApolloX or a cf enforced filament would probably be a better choice though. The radiant heat is high in the bay, but this part is also continually drawing ambient air through it.

@EndMotive Жыл бұрын

I don't recommend it either lol, It ran fine for a little bit but ended up having a vacuum leak so I pulled it off. I was running one on my Frontier for about 9 months without issue and then finally pulled it off because obd scanner I have said there is a pending code that was being caused by it, so it is off for the time being. The fitment and everything was great and that was the main objective with this test print!
