When fitting an induction....*noob question alert*
« on: 02 October 2012, 13:31 »
Hey guys, I have been speaking to Ryan @ RamAIR and they are making me a custom made induction kit for my Golf, which includes:

1 x JS-108 in the colour you chose (Large 80mm Filter)
1 x SR-106 Bracket
1 x 80- 76/70 Reducer.

And I have only now thought, (after paying)  :rolleyes: The pipe that comes off the standard airbox and leads to the secondary air pump, what happens to this when I fit the induction?  :huh:

Get rid of the SAI.

Failing that, just stick some sort of filter over it.

I take it I just block it up? :huh:

Or what kind of filter would fit on the plastic pipe?

Thanks for the quick response :)

Bit more to it to remove it..

Anything that will filter it really, a mini K&N airfilter was fitted to a car I bought.
