Carbon Clio

[Kateybingham]

This project is about making special parts no one else will not make,first off carbon fibre air box,larger volume capacity,I will post photos the next couple off days,plug has been made,moulds have been taken a lot off thought.

this will probably lose some bhp as other intake solutions do

Tis worth a small loss for the induction noise

Your induction kit plans sound just like a maxogen TBH.

Yeah, hate to burst your bubble, but these guys will make pretty much anything you ask.. In fact to prove that point, I'm going to ask them to make me a thumbs up out of carbon

Aim using the original air box as the plug,I will reshape for more air volume,if you look inside the original air box to small area for optimising efficient air flow due to manufacturing costs,this air box will not be a cheap fibreglass with one surface layer of twill weave showing,as for losing power I don't think so,I have an induction kit on at the present,which is losing the car power due to high temperature,I have put thermocouple under bonnet where air box is temp,reading 80f.I'll post photos later today.

whats the optimum size airbox for the engine? Is it really such a limiting factor or more to do with the inlet manifold design?
