Hey all. So i did the mod on my ph-quick where you slap in the bigger CAF inplace of the old ones, and currently they are just hanging down below the headlights. I replaced the std filter with a k&n one. It sounds awesome and all that but i seem to have lost power between gear changes, its just...
buy it and sell it in parts back on ebay. sheesh if it didnt cost that much to get it here id buy it onetime. can a V6 engine be squeezed into a 172 bay?
well they now be hanging in mine. took them off the mount earlier. cant really figure out if its any better tho. oh well, ill go give it another test in a few :)
well, went for a quick spin. Sounds nice, seems to have helped a bit for performance, and bumped into a 182 on the drive and had a little street race and wot not.
oh well, gonna take it for a spin now and see what its like. i also thought that having the same size intake holes would defeat the purpose of bigger caf's, but thought id try it out just to see. at least i can just take them off if they dont work :)
@ rob669: so you just let them hang down...
figured it out. pull some of the wire thru so yuo have a flappy bit at the end, pull the flappy bit thru the hole, stick the trumpet in and cable tie that biaach on :)
k i am in the middle of doing this mod and have no idea how the hell you fit the new tubes to the mount by the wheel arch. those holes and the trumpets down there are just too small for the new tubes. anyone care to shed some light??
i cleaned mine, gave it a few coats of plastic primer(all i had leftover in the garage) and some gloass black spracan stuff, and the a few coats of laquer. been bout two week and alls good, looks good 2.
maybe slap another engine in the back and somehow convert your rear axle and stuff to the one that you have infront?? twin engine 4x4 :)
there was a guy down here who did it to a mk1 golf
