Ahhh, hello mate!!
That is the LRAB65, rated to 300BHP!
Same as the standard kit uses but without the other bits as the stock location isnt the best!

Me too mate, gonne have a run up to Paul at RST next week if he can fit me in!

Got it in one matey!!
Would involve relocating the rad header tank! Or, training it accross the bay to the L/H vent.
This is pretty much the most direct I can get from feed to TB!
Cheers Pigeon and theduck!

Hmmm. I really wouldn't want to drive that on a spray-ridden motorway!
Is it though...What makes the Maxogen a great design is it's route to cold airspace, granted they've done the best they can with the 197 space and relocated TB....But i can't see it being much more efficient that a stock carbon box filter with a feed...
Ah well...Just my thoughts. I'd be more concerned with the feed tbh!
lol! On a saturated road!?!

Yeah, you're right... that side will be perfectly dry!
I'm still not convinced
Roffle IIRC you only put trim gel on that side of the wheel arch!

Sorry of cause the front bumper would be better, you wont get rain or spray there at all will you? and it wont act like a scoop if you hit a deeper than expected puddle either will it?
At least as its facing backwards its less likely to 'scoop' water up

LOL... not saying that that's any better dude. That's why i've not had one for years.
it'd just concern me, that's all

TBH I couldnt care less what it looks like, they were all out of gucci airboxes last I looked!!
Feed wise, yeah It could be an issue, but the bend in the pipe should stop this!
I think the spray issue would be just as bad as a front bumper (foglamp) mount though surely?
Reference it not being much better than STD, I would hope it is, but I guess we'll see!! It runs cooler and has more capacity and more direct feed, also, the std grilled feed on the 197 is shocking, the the black pipe off and undo the trim clips, the box it draws air from doesnt even feed to the grille???

Nice!
Wrap it in carbon film to be a tart!
Agree with keepin the rollers consistent. Although considering Pauls is a Harsh roller his read about 20brake MORE than Falklands on Chic megane the other weekend! Bizarre!

Really?? WTF is that about then?!
Mine will see 210plus easy on sat, I'll put my money on that!! But... thats just for pub bragging rights!
Lol @ the carbon, Im gonoing to get a gucci sticker made mate :rasp:
You thinking TB's next? Who did the work on the inlets/Cams?
Errr Not sure what happened with the RR...I know the owner was "curious"...

Inlets was poobah's handywork mate! Cams were fitted by Pauls dad who is a Renault specailist, top bloke. Family business, like they used to be, about customer service was a nice change!! His ma was even showing me the pics of him pissed at new year
I have other thoughts rather than TB's mate if this one goes bang, but thats a secret!

humm...Sounds interesting. yeh met paul's many moons ago! When they had the old unit in leeds! Racing down the high street to test the 8000rpm limit was an interesting experience...
What is the reason for taking the decat off? Surely on that setup it will cost you quite a few bhp?
