looking to make a custom re-location for my 1.4RT so wonderin how big the neck size is!

would it be a good idea to get soem samco hosin and put it over the neck then strap the K&N to end of it closer to the front of the car!

I made myself a pipe for the 172 to relocate a K&N:

Just measure the diameter of the air inlet and get some piping to suit. Samco would be ideal but Ive had trouble locating any at a reasonable price.

cheers brun!

now where do i get the hosin from?

tried B&Q but they dont do nething like wot rhys got!

how would i attach my K&N to the bottom of the hose....hmm spose thats for me to figure out!

Got that stuff from H*lfords, but its not ideal. I had to cover it in heat resistant tape to stop it getting shredded in the engine bay. If you locate some decent hosing (I need 70mm), let me know as I want some...

Dont want to be a touch more constructive and say where we can get decent hosing from do you? Besides, it was just bought from Halfords, its made by Green airfilter company and its not bad stuff for a cold air feed, its just not great attached to the throttle body.
