Yeah... genuine tooter Tshirt air filters.
I figured that air filters use cotton fibers, so I did too.

There's no need to do dope when life is already so full of wholesome constructive and fun pursuits.

Congrats man, it'd been fun to watch this thread. Glad you finally have it running! I can't wait to see what the dyno says.

I just couldn't resist driving the car more...

So I doubled up the T shirt over the velocity stack, and did some 4,000 rpm test revs while watching the shirt for signs of exess suction, and all was good to go. The air was quite still with no blowing dust so I took it to town again to run some errands.

starts right up
idles smoothly
very responsive
no CEL.
38.9 average gas mileage

So far, the tooter manifold has been a rousing success for my driving style, because it is performing so well under regular low rpm driving conditions. All that remains now is resolving the air filter issue when the 90 degree coupling arrives and then generating some horsepower and torque curves.

After that I think I'll just enjoy running it as is for a while, then later I'll decide on the aesthetics of what finish to put on it.

We NEED a vid. Even if it's just idling in the driveway.

I'll post a video both idling and running on Monday.
My camera has no sound, and my wife has the good camera.
