Are you polishing the outside for looks or the inside for flow?

does it really matter?

I believe it does. You would need a flex cable for inside, with smaller tools. Outside you want a mirror finish. Inside I would go for a matt finish. Shinier is not always better for flow.

I agree, it's going to take a die grinder. This is way too much for a Dremel tool.

True on the flex shaft. If the intake had a lot of detail you would even need it for the outside. Yeah I guess for intakes I use a hone anyway so it is different. Sorry Bart I an ornery cuss today

As far as tools goes, you can pick up a real inexpensive low duty cycle die grinder from an import tool company like harbor freight. you will need the arbor for the buffing wheels and at least two different rouge compounds to get your "bling" on Sophie.

Yeah, Harbor Frieght has some good cheap stuff. I'd want to go slow on an intake too, so as not to make any "holes" that aren't supposed to be there. :lol:
