cold air feed & heat sheild
« on: 01 June 2013, 20:41 »
changed to an S2000 cone filter but due to the size couldn't fit the heat sheild that was previously on. a lot of brute force and a hacksaw managed to get it on and a slightly pikey cold air feed from the lower grill using a cone trumpet I think from the original air box.





seems to be working very well, filter still felt cold after a long drive and 247bhp on a 3rd gear run using liquid guage - questionable accuracy but worth the hour of DIY  :grin:

3" neoprene hose of flea bay

used heat reflective tape on the shield, probably makes no difference but looks bling  :grin:

There £14 of so from ECP. Have to get a 70mm-86mm reducer to fit on a 70mm MAF.
Took mine off as it was stupid induction loud.

I was embarrassed.

Children jumped into bushes with the fear of being sucked in.
