Also in the fitting instructions ITG actually tell/show you to take the acoustic soleniod out

 

[ja.jack]

I ordered mine from GDI on Sunday and hav'nt had acknowledgement yet.

Are you watching Andy?

 

[Greeny.]

Expensive bit of kit! Cant say it would be something I would bother with, panel filter ftw but looks/sounds nice all the same

 

[CHRISK172+]

[Turner]

I'm hoping it will release the potential of my BenR manifold (whatever happened to him) and GroupN ecu. I've allways been a hopeless optimist.
It's what keeps me young at heart. lol

 

[Donz144]

I have one....they suck!

 

[Donz144]

Only joking!!!!!!!!!!! I crack myself up.

 

[Rob's172]

^^^ lmao! suck.....get it... suck air.....get it

 

[Turner]

Thats what hopfully will be my next mod as i still have the older inlet not the RS logo'd one so apparently i should have more to gain with this done???

 

[Donz144]

Rob is good!!

 

[Turner]

Sorry about quality only little digi camera and i wouldnt no how to take arty farty pics lol

 

[ja.jack]

So, turner, do you reckon the 7bhp claim is bullshine?

 

[Donz144]

what does the manual say about cleaning it? How and when?

 

[Donz144]

Who gives a s**t about hp when its sounds as good as this???!!

 

[Turner]

So, turner, do you reckon the 7bhp claim is bullshine?

ja.jack,Are we talking about inlets or the filter bud?

 

[ja.jack]

The Maxogen mate. As you probably know , they claim 7bhp on their web.

 

[JR]

cant wait to see some updated pics bud, seems like it will have changed quite a bit since i saw it last.

hope this helps

I couldnt really say atm mate not fitted as of yet but i will certainly test it my own way(without rollers)hehe
Tbh im really happy with the way my car is runnin atm quite effortless i think alot of it is the decat makes it rev alot more freely

 

[Donz144]

YOU THE MAN.....cheers dude.

 

[Turner]

A up justin,yeah its defo changing abit also got a brand new cup spoiler ready for spraying so that should tidy the back end up as i could never work out why they put a black 3rd brake light on when the others are red??

 

[ja.jack]

I'm a blind c**t me. You ran out of light and did'nt fit it. Tell us tomorrow.

 

[Turner]

I'm a blind c**t me. You ran out of light and did'nt fit it. Tell us tomorrow.

Hehe,yeah mate not enough light and i thought you would just take the old box out and fit new,i wish!
It tells you first to take the front left wheel off then arch liner and take the solenoid out(acoustic valve)than i think you have to move the battery for the trumpet to fit through in between the battery and the metal bar otherwise you will scratch f**k out of the carbon oouch not good so all in all a bit more work than undo old and bolt new

 

[ja.jack]

After all that shenanigans we'll be right scunnered if the motors do'nt go better. lol

 

[Turner]

We will soon find out my friend!!

 

[makavelli]

all you need to do is undo screw the bolt which holds the battery rail fella, then you can lift the rail and slide the maxogen trumpet in place it literally take 5mins to fit the maxogen.

taken the acoustic valve out will take a little longer though lol, although you dont need to do it straight away, you can run the maxogen with the acoustic valve still in place.

one tip i would give you is dont connect any cold air feed directly to the maxogen, instead have the feed supply air to the 'airspace' behind the headlight where the maxogen trumpet draws the air in

ja.jack: i rekon like all induction kits, the claimed bhp gains air a tad optimistic lol, compared to the viper i had, i found the maxogen to be quieter, and a lot smoother! i felt i got a few flat spots with the viper pre 5k but the maxogen helps the motor to pull smoothly across the whole range

[Turner]

Thanks mate,the info will help me shave a few minutes of fitting time,wasnt going to connect any caf up just like you say leave the trumpet just behind the headlight,
I might fit the maxogen tonight and maybe take the acoustic valve out another time?

i would do if i were you fella as i said you can get the maxogen on in literally 5-10mins and then worry about the acoustic valve another time

 

[Rob's172]

looks good that, put some pics up when u get it fitted

Rob is good!!

thanks:approve:
