I got 2 philips bluevision bulbs free with my silvervisions . I just stuck them both in the interior light cos they looked crap as sidelights . They look more white than the original interior bulbs , but nothing special .
Mines in a custom air box i made myself so it doesn't flap about with it being so big it just rests there . Plus i connected the oil breather pipe to the 90 degree bend .
It depends how often you wax tbh . If its only every couple of months dont bother with the chemical guys and go for Collinite , every couple of weeks then they are ok durability wise .
A guy at work installed tomtom6 on mine . He got the same and just changed the date on the phone to an earlier date than the expiration date .After he finished the installation he just changed the date back to the correct one :)
Chemical guys Pete's 53' or Chemical guys 50/50 .

A good wax for winter , probably the easiest on and off . Collinite 845 insulator wax . I prefer this over the Collinite 476 .

In my experience i had a k+n apollo which was way too small imo . It seem to strangle the engine and lost the 5k kick .
I now have a green cone filter ( also a k+n cone ) in a custom enclosure , the surface area of the cone filter is alot bigger than that of the oem panel filter . It...
Putting on P plates when it's not compulsory says to me that they've just passed their test but don't feel confident enough to drive solo in which case they shouldn't be on the road in the first place .
When i was talking to one of the guys at Powerflow he had a Corsa with a Calibra engine in . He said he needed an engineers report stating what had been done and what power it was producing . Something to do with if it had more than double the power of the original car then the insurance shot up...
Yeah they should be long enough . The ones in the second link , you'll probably have to cut down slightly . It'll also depend on what application your using the bends for . i.e. OEM filter housing or induction kit . I use mine with a green air filter .
Can't remember the exact size , but its quite small . The 2 holes going into the Ph2 172 airbox measure 68mm and 60mm x 80mm oval ( 70mm) . The air feeds are alot smaller than this though , espcially the one that goes underneath the airbox . Its something in the region of 50mm ID .
Of course it sucks . Thats why if you have an IK fitted you hear a loud roar when you press the accelerator pedal . Put your hand over the throttle body while the accelerator pedal is pressed . You'll feel it suck .
You mean the air feed wasn't going to the original position down towards the wheel arch ? We are talking Clio's here ?? If he didnt have the air feed going anywhere he was most likely sucking in hot air from the engine bay .
Like i said before . There's a huge restriction inbetween the CAF /...
^^^ You've seen it happen ? Then it must be right and i am wrong ;) How did you actually see it happen ? Have you any hard evidence , facts and figures etc.... or do you have a mate who's induction kit now sounds slightly louder so if it's louder it must be producing more power :quiet:
You've...
The fact is you can't force air in . The engine sucks the air in , it can only take in as much as the size of the throttle body will allow . Even if your driving at 60mph , the air forced up the cold air feed hits a huge restriction , the air filter itself , so any pressure is lost . It's a...
Is it doing it when the engines not been warmed up ? Cos they all hesitate until its properly warmed up .
I had a similar hesitation but mine was between 2 and 3k revs . It was the spark plugs . Changed them and it was good as new .
When i painted a set of calipers , i cleaned them first with some wire brushes that fit in a drill . They came up really shiny and polished but still a rough texture . Tbh i wouldn't leave them that way as they'll soon become black and tarnished with the brake dust and heat i would imagine .
Imo you won't see any gains having the cold air feed in the grill or foglight . Just run it down towards the wheel arch as per the original air feed . The engine sucks air , it's not forced so it will suck enough cold air from the wheel arch .If you go through very deep water and the air feed is...
