Cold Air Feed

rrright...and that does? ? ? (sorry the clues in the name!)

 

[J0sh]

CAF is baisically a long tube that runs from the IK to the front of the car somewhere. Can be positioned behind the grille so it takes fresh, cool air and feeds it directly into the IK, thus creating more power. (Colder air is, more efficient it is in the cylinder)

 

[Shotgunsjay]

if relocated to the lower front grill or fog light it will suck cold air in, so youre induction kit isnt sucking all the lovely warm air from the engine bay......

[Shotgunsjay]

Where did you get yours from and how much(as i see your from sheff and im there tomorrow)? Thinking about getting one for mine as a quick fix untill i can afford a nice stainless steel exhaust system as they do sound really nice.

You deffo want a decent cold air feed tho, theyre not that difficult to plumb in, just common sence really. did you non get one with the kit? you should have got a black bendy tube IIRC (used to have one on a golf).
