Post by: VR6_Wherry on 30 January 2014, 15:56

Any one know what I can do to ensure nothing bad gets sucked up! Airbox is completely missing!

There are actually some in the car already!!! I will use that if it works that was my plan but not the brown ones would want to use black ones!

Would it work though?

Just get a really cheap paper filter. Stretch the corrugated part out and cut it to shape. Bit of duck tape or an elastic band around the air inlet, jobs a goodun!

Yes the tights will work. But best stretch 2 layers over the TB
