How to fit a BMC induction kit

[kastrato]

I bought a BMC Carbon induction kit from a felow cliosport member.
It was fitted on his 182 and now it is time to be fitted on my 182.
The problem is that I have no idea how to do this!! So please people Help!!!
If somebody have done his and recorded the process with pics I would be greatfull if he can post them.
I know that I need to remove the standard filter box up to the elbow, and then fit on it the BMC. I dont know exactly what to do with the "cold air" feed tube. Where is this being attached in the other end?
Thanks in advance guys!!

not able too google for instructions and pictures??? what one is it?? I been advised to get a BMC DNA one!?!? lol

its much easier to fit if you get a silicone elbow, the std elbow is crap

 

[kastrato]

where can I find one?
What I am going to do with all these little pipes connected with the elbow?
Or there aren't any little pipes attached to it ? Aren't all of them attached to the air flow?

What advantages do you get over std elbow that the silcone one?:S

do these kits not lose power?

That section where your pipe is running in impossible to get mine that way!!!

thats because you have to remove the fuel rail guard

BMC CDA's don't loose power!

ok. just was told by a few people on the forum that ind kits give more response but less bhp.

 

[cliobritt]

do the BMC give a gain ?

 

[christurbo]

I need my 172 RR'd to confirm but its has definatley changed the way it pulls.

I will bet on the gains


Also I have no aircon so it has given me loads more room to route

I posted these on the other BMC thread but thought they might be useful to you too.
