How to make a forced air induction kit for £1.50

[Goodj]

The auto electrician that fitted a new alternator for me this morning thought it was oe

Please let us know who that was, so we can avoid.

too expensive.

 

[Dave Hester]

too expensive.

Ask your mum for some extra pocket money

 

[Naith]

to fit to a megane? if you'd have put the effort into making a range of them i may be interested.

 

[Dave Hester]

I have lots of spare buckets

There will be alot of research and development going on in the next few weeks

Im guessing JMS will be glad there out of this game now.

This WAS the best quote I've heard today...

I have lots of spare buckets

Then he said this!

Then the holy grail.

On a serious note. I can only imagine how fcuking funny it sounds. Would definatley put a smile on your face driving it.

 

[Revels]

Thanks mate, hope it gets approval to go in the guides section

It's not being published as a guide. Sorry.

 

[.Adam.]

Would this pass an MOT?

I love how so many people in this thread assume raiderman is being serious. What a bunch of dribbling mongos.

Please revels

It took ages making the step by step guide

It works so why not??

Just a quick suggestion.

To avoid the radiator problem have you considered making a cut out in your bonnet so half of the bucket can sit out above the bonnet and the lower half will then be above the radiator.

 

[Knuckles]

Cut the rim off the bucket, that way it will be a very well designed cone/surround for an induction kit... With no place to clip the bucket handle to

Any chance of a decat being made too?

^^ sorry

Genius, home made massive air scoop for all the pikey 1.2s y0!


Can create a new product line here, I send in my bonnet plus £50, you return me a specially cow-milking-bucket-adapted-air-scoop-ready "lightened" (because it has a hole in it...) clio bonnet.

I have but im going to move the radiator across 6 inches first so it clears the bucket

 

[Dave Hester]

Is a 1.2 radiator smaller???

Piss easy.

Got a tropicana carton spare?

Not sure, but I'm decorating at the moment and have a tiny radiator from the downstairs bathroom, the room is hardly big enough to swing my **** so the radiator is tiny. You might be able to modify that to fit? Free of charge, you just cover postage.

 

[Toms_clio]

Omg that is quality. I bet if it was wrapped in carbon then thousands of people would buy this ok eBay!!
Just don't mention it's a bucket lol

 

[/Jim]

Will this fit my 1.2?

How much for one delivered?

Exactly

People cant see past the fact that its a bucket simply turned into a effective heatshield

Some very depressing people on here tbh

Almost as much fail as buying loads of new sensors for your car without correctly diagnosing the fault first...

 

[.Adam.]

This is surely a wind up.

 

[mace¬]

This is surely a wind up.

Wind up turbo? Could be the next project.

a load? 2, which came up as faults when it WAS diagnosed.... called trying to save some money, thats the point of the forum i posted in isnt it? to ask questions, have a go at sorting issues yourself? ... anyways, renault have it now, and are still trying to get it running properly again, as when they plugged in their sensor it said no faults, as i had the errors wiped.

try harder?

*life story over....*

Even before everyone started taking the piss that is everyone's point. It's not effective, the reasons having already been stated.


Having said that, good on you for trying something. If you had fun, good on you. If it sounds great, good on you! Maybe people who already have an IK, thus already suffer from heat soak will do this because it sounds good. The piss taking started when you tried to convince people it worked.

 

[p@blo]

Think up 3 initials. Get some stickers. Get a fan club. Get a spokesman.

There's definitely a gap in the market for someone with your talents.

im awaiting the two bucket method....

thats the enclosed filter.. still in research iirc

Please revels... It took ages making the step by step guide... It works so why not??

The main reason I paid my £12 membership was for the guides which were described as "good" and "helpful".
If I paid and the first guide I accessed was yours I'd have done a PayPal chargeback quicker than you can say "bucket fail"

 

[richo]

Enough interest to arrange a group buy?

 

[koi]

stick one of these in front to suck more air in

 

[Adam.P]

Fair play for trying something different. Not for me though.

bandit forced iduction kit v2 :

 

[/Jim]

please note it looks as if the feed comes out the front of the bonnet but it was intended to be sketched as behind the grill and bumper. Upon consideration, you can run it either way to create a sort of elephant trunk look.

Cable ties required.

 

[Gandi69]

On ebay you can find proper enclosed induction kits for around the £15-20 mark that come with an extendable CAF hose. I bought one for my saxo, fitted a ramair foam filter into it that I previously had. You can keep your BMCs! haha

 

[danzman1991]

Lol at making the guide in all seriousness, then pretending it was a joke all along..

 

[Mr Burns]

Well if it's cost you £1.50 to make you car sound better then fair play. As for the engine bay comments I don't see the problem, your bonnet is always shut!? ...If you're embarrassed by the cheap-ass mod then remove it if you take it to a garage!? And finally, IMO gaining or losing a couple of Bhp here and there makes f*ck all difference anyway!

Your biggest fail was posting it all on here for everyone to laugh at.

 

[welshname]

We all know those extra bhp figures make teenage girls gush...
