fitting CAF to lower grill.

[SCOTT_182CUP]

How does the CAF fit into the lower grill of a 182. Had a look on old topics which show if fitted from the front but wanted to know how it secures to car. does the piping run straight up on the 182 aswell or is there a specific way to do this to.

Most feed it down the wheel arch and up into the lower grill. This is a fiddle job and if its foil CAF u want to use it will be ripped to bits. Most remove the acoustic valve to make it easier

Remove all Std Feeds Inc. acoustic Valve, Need to remove your wheel arch liner to do this, Then I just removed a Black Sheet of Black Plastic that was blocking access to the lower grill, Job Done, Room is tight tho behing the grill I struggled for a while and mine still isn't perfect

if you just fit the CAF bit and not the hosing - purely for aesthetics of course - would it look ok, or would you be able to see it doesnt go anywhere?

it will have the hosing fitted to but not sure how the caf is secured to the grill to stop it falling out. how long does the hosing need to be as i havent got this yet and dont want it to be too short

I removed my fog light as it was all cracked, used a 3" sub box port that fits nicely into the surround, removed the acoustic valve and I've now got a nice, simple and direct CAF straight up onto my V6 airbox

I've run mine down to the bottom of the car where there is a hole which allows lot of cold air to be drwan in. Advantage is there are no bends apart from the top where as if you go to the grill you got to bend it at the top and bottom round the wheel arch and up to the grill.
