RE: look at this
Hey nitro man! I know you said you wanted to make it but you might find this interesting. Check out the link for this K&N Filter for rc cars. It says it will fit .12 .15 & .21 engines. Not sure if you want to fab your own but here is one option. Never used one so cant tell you much about it. There is a thread about a similar intake that someone made and it looks cool. You might want to read that thread and see what everyone has to say about these types of filters.

Good Luck!

RE: look at this
I know you already saw this
I found some rubber hose that best fit the carb. I took the crayola marker and hollowed it out with a drill, and drilled a hole into the side of the marker at one end. I superglued a peice of the rubber hose over the hole in the marker. When the glue dried I painted the intake black then attached the filter using a hose clamp. Another hose clamp hold the hole thing down.

RE: look at this
It works good I think. I never really did a before and after. I know it gets more air than stock. Without touching any needles, the first time I started it with the new intake, the engine raced and I had to lower the idle. Being on the cold side of the car the air that comes in is more dence which makes more power.
