Best Induction Make

Recommended Posts

plastic arch liner style thing, but it will exposed to the air coming in through the scoop, so it will get very wet in the rain!

Well, far from quieting it down, the induction noise has got deeper - but now emits from the bumper ! Makes peoples heads turn still as it sounds a bit like a flat four Subaru !

 

Good news is now that the intake temp had dropped considerably, meaning I have to adjust my fuelling to compensate.

 

Sitting in traffic I saw 8 degrees intake, while 50 degrees above in the engine bay. Intake temp rose to about 18 degress after left to idle for 5 mins.

Hi

 

Cheers for the comments !

 

The backplate was a pain in the arse to cut, but with careful use of rulers, masking tape and a 45mm tank cutter, all came out well. There was plenty of dust and stray fibres, so be careful if you get one.

 

Not sure if you can get 100mm Samco hose . . . . can you ;) , that'd look mad !

 

Was thinking about painting the expansion tank black, what you reckon ?

 

Chris

 

Sam, off the top of my head, it's about 200mm deep.

Looks great :D

 

Yes paint that expansion tank black, or boil it in salt or something, or chuck it in the bin, lol. ;)

 

So the opening is 100mm.

Sam, off the top of my head, it's about 200mm deep.

 

Have you an exact measurement for the depth? Thanks. :D

What's the best way of adding some extra insulation to the aluminum tube ?

 

Been looking at the exhaust wraps etc, but what about tin foil layers and wadding - cheapo soultion ;)

 

Still want to take the edge off the induction roar . . .

K&N finally turned up :

Too big to stick in the wing though - so it's gonna have to sit above the incoming duct from the bumper :

This is probably better as it won't get as wet - but then again I won't get the benefit of the cool wing air.

 

When the airbox comes I'll probably end up cramming it in the wing with a little pursuasion !!

Back to the classic Nokia phone pics !!

is this on throttle boddies or carbs
