Induction kits

[Ricardinho]

lot of them are for sale recently, was thinking of getting one, but,

is there a reason why all of you are selling as you dont like them? if so why?

 

[jamesp24]

Because panel filter is better :rasp: .

 

[Ricardinho]

true enough, saves yourself a good few hundred too

 

[jamesp24]

Indeed i think people get a panel filter and better caf ,waste of money buying an induction kit unless its enclosed which costs alot.

 

[jonny mac]

save start a new thread and sorry for jacking but when you take off the connection pipe for the filter to the engine there is a small pipe comes off it with small ammounts of oil in it.

if i but and put on a k&n induction kit what happens to this pipe what do i cover it with or do i buy a small filter for it?

my engine's a 1.2 8v

thanks

jonny

 

[Ricardinho]

think you need a little oil breather filter thing, halford sell them

 

[jamesp24]

I think its a breather pipe you can get little filter things to go on it.

 

[jonny mac]

think i can see a filter on this 1.2 8v engine

I have a pipercross panel filter in the standard airbox and have recently changed it for there induction kit on a Samco elbow.

I'm dynoing the car again hopefully this weekend so will be able to show before and after printouts if anyone's interested?

Definately interesting to see those results...need to put the IK/panel debate to bed lol

 

[Mark R-C]

do panel filters add any noise at all? or is it pretty pointless for a 1.2 16v, as i would like some noise when accelerating, but not sure on a induction kit due to heat soak in summer.

thanks and sorry for hi-jack

knowsit

 

[jamesp24]

Not really ,i think you can get shields for an open induction kit to reduce the heat being sucked in abit.

the filter fitted to the pipe

and my problem is that where the join is wi the silver hose it keeps eating and ripping away at the hose pipe, it's the engine's circular pipe going into it keeps destroying my silver pipe


what can i do? (no silly answers please)

 

[kully]

splitting or seperating ?

try a bigger jubilee clip .

 

[jamesp24]

Orgasmic.

 

[kully]

Blimey that's village lol

 

[jonny mac]

ok spoke to the guy in the tuning shop today, he says it's cause of the vibration it's splitting. so i got some heat resistant tape and put that round the whole pipe and problem solved. now i can hear the noise of it at 4000rpm

problem solved
