Title: Re-Located Sai Filter
Post by: northeast_gti-t on 12 June 2010, 20:44

As per the title decided to move the sai filter this morning to a different position that done this afternoon i decided i still wasn't overly happy and then had another idea for re-locating it to make it all look that little bit neater really in effect  :rolleyes: made a small mod to the lower engine cover and sorted out the locating/fixing screw on the l/h side as it wasn't seating correctly and annoyed me  :laugh: so all sorted now  :smiley:

couple of pics of how its looking :-

Equally I don't think Matt gives a toss as he no longer owns the car  :grin:

Much to his regret  :lipsrsealed: :whistle:

eBay item no. 390603431983 is a straight fit. Pushes onto the end of the SAI pipe without the need to use the included jubilee clip.
