Cold air feed for induction kit

[Gloves88]

Gloves, that's exactly what I was looking for...though the whole "puddles" thing is making me a bit iffy.

Beechy...might have to look into that, thanx guy

What i meant to say in my last post was "i wouldnt worry" - have just edited it 

Water spray will never get all the way up the pipe, the fact that there are bends etc in it stop it from even getting as far as the airbox.

I dont have any pics of my last motor but i had a cold air intake in exactly the same place as you're planning to put one now. Was on for well over a year in rainy north east Scotland without a single prob.

By deep puddles I mean, I wouldnt submerge the whole intake, ie a flooded road or the likes, but should you ever come across that you could just stop and pull the feed off before venturing through

the 1 of the montego an maestro looks just like the 1 that gloves has shown, i used 2 have 1 on my own monty turbo years ago, i 4got all about it myself, i might go an ave a look at stickin it on my 16v, should slip straight in grille i think

spray the inside of the pipe with white grease

we used to do it when we were racing and it stops the water and dirt getting to the filter

I've noticed the power your car put out at JKM the other day. Did they give any indication for the missing bhp or was it running ok?

Nah they said it was running fine. A lil smokey, but they said that was due to it running slightly rich. I am quite stumped on where the power's gone, though I'm thinking I've gained a couple back now I've put a cold air feed on, because where the filter cone was right behind the headlights, there wasn't really any direct air feed onto it, also the gearbox is going, engine isn't in great condition as a whole, but I was quite miffed that I was down 10bhp

This is how im doing it witht he track car.

£5 from b&q
The open space around the pipe will be funnelled in so that air can only go in the metal pipe and the other end will be funneled under the air filter or it will funnel over the end of the filter.

That's what I was thinking, thought for some reason it might not be road legal

As long as you have main and dipped beams in the main Headlights I cant think why it would not be.
