Fitting induction kits.....

[Magicman]

Silly question but is it easy or does it have to be done professionally...??????????:S

 

[brownale01]

i have been told it is easy enough to do, apparently some come with instructions as well

 

[makavelli]

just a few screws to undo the existing airbox and a few more to attach a new one

easy job which shouldnt take too long

cheers chaps.......saw a 182 with the air inlet in the lower front grill is that correct. or was that something else.:S

the fitting of the induction kit is the easy part

fitting a cold air feed is a bit trickier

to fit a feed in the lowergrill you ideally need to remove the bumper (and the acoustic valve whilst u are there)

Probably, its an easy job to do just take your time, what one were you thinking of fitting?

 

[Peperami]

Dead easy. First time i did it took me half an hourish i think.

 

[kully]

i had mine fitted but can do it myself now , not as hard as it looks

depends what u got to spend really.
i dont think they are worth it unless you get the Maxogen, BMC CDA or Viper.

Various opinions on these Magicman.
Open kits like my K&N 57i sound nice, but suffer in the summer with heatsoak from the engine EVEN with a decent air feed. If you have the money, go for Maxogen, I can help you with the cold air feed if you like. This was my attempt which does a good job in delivering air (tested for effectiveness with a hair dryer!! LOL!)

I know, it was only thing I could think off. It was just really to check there were no kinks or bends in the piping, and the air was getting through nicely!
