Just got done making an intake pipe for my 2006 Frontier V6.
I used 3" mandrel bent aluminum tubes and some 3-1/4" to 3" silicone couplers from Ebay. I didnt really want to get rid of the factory air box and MAF sensor tube, so I just left all that. I also was not expecting it to make any significant power gains (it doesnt feel much different driving). I just like to make stuff.
For the catch can, I used one from Radium Engineering and made a custom mount for it. Then I plumbed it to the crank case vent port on the LH valve cover. I will probably add another one of these cans to the PCV hose in the future. Since it seems the PCV hose is how the majority of the oil ends up in the intake manifold, on my engine anyway. And I would rather that oil end up in a catch can.
Anyway, not expecting huge improvements/differences/gains over stock, but as I said, I just like to make stuff and thought I would share.
