The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

[Mr Plums]

Tbh i think any bend and filter combination will give the same sound, its not these that give you the sound, its the engine, its just being filtered through the cone filter(slightly)

 

[MrBlonde]

Yeah it does make a different sound mate with the metal pipe rather than the silicone hose.metal pipe makes it more rasphy & louder.i had both set ups and went back to metal pipe & silicone top hose.Im after a different filter now tho.

[Mr Plums]

You legend! Thanks mate!

The ITG filter? I thought everyone was using ramair ones?

Thats a little less expensive..

[Poopensharten]

Thanks for your help, lads!

 

[Poopensharten]

Evening lads!

Right so went for the ally pipe and RamAir as suggested (sounds smashing)

However, although its secure, towards the filter end it sort of moves about, could be doing with being secured!

Anyone suggest anything?

 

[imprezaworks]

Cable ties

 

[Jimbob 2705]

Cable tie - either to the metal bit which runs along the battery and into the ecu bit, or I tied mine to something below, as I found the first way made it stick up too high

 

[McGherkin]

That bracket with the circular hole in it - put a rubber edging strip down the edge of it where it meets the new pipe, and cabletie the two together.

 

[Poopensharten]

Aye i thought about cable ties but didn't think it'd look too tidy!

I'll ask the oracle that is my old man the Engineer lol.

 

[KitsonRis]

I cable tied mine to the old air box stap mount. But did two so it was being pulled from both directions so is like tight and not just loose in one direction.

Hi, I did this mod as well, and impressive result[emoji15] [emoji15] [emoji1] [emoji1] .

Thanks for all the explanations and pictures that made it very easy!

I added an insulation flexible conduct trying to get the aluminum pipe a bit colder. See pic

That is my filter.... Second one as first was dinner for mouse, or something similar.... Gold tape maybe doesn't look apart, but intake temperature dropped about 15-20 deg!

Where did you get the gold tape from mate?

 

[boorek]

It's from Ramair I went for 50mmx10m option, and about half left.

 

[MrBlonde]

How do you know the temp dropped mate?,how did you get the readings?

 

[boorek]

Torque, and bluetooth obd. Its stainless elbow, and it was very hot when driving, so without gold tape I had about 70-75deg intake air temperature, with its about 50-55, both driving around town in same day.

 

[MrBlonde]

How does it hold it place mate,did you just use the hose clips?

 

[Clio_fool]

Fitted my fatty the other day and must say is much quieter than i expected. It does roar when you floor it but it's not a constant noise. Still worth the outlay though.
I'll aet up intake temp in torque and see what I get.

 

[boorek]

its self adhesive

 

[Clio_fool]

My intake temp but 31deg C on the way home this morning. That gold wrap jarrs wuth me aesthetically though! Be intresting to see what temps hit on a sunny day, but that will probably have to wait until next year cos we've had it already this year.

 

[boorek]

How long you was driving? Yesterday, after half hour driving around town at 5pm so quite bit of traffic(19deg ambient temperature) I end up on 31... I'm not sure if it adds any bhp, but as far as I know colder=better. Does any of you know how much intercooler drops temperature?

 

[Clio_fool]

I did half an hour, 50 mph cruise on motorway and then a bit of 6k rpm to wake me up. Outside temp said 11 deg.

 

[StrongboW]

Since the elbow link is not available now does anyone have a link for correct ally pipe?

Does everyone still use the TALL filter?

 

[Clio_fool]

Elbow still on ebay mate, I bought one the other week.
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200967481273

Thanks mate what filter are they using one in the original post or the one someone has posted above. Can't see much difference bar one says tall on the discription.

 

[Clio_fool]

I got the original one.

 

[StrongboW]

I got the original one.

The link that's in the first post?

 

[Clio_fool]

The link that's in the first post?

Yep that's the one mate. It arrived quick too so you'll probably end up waiting for the elbow.

Is there any gains like the original post said I can't see there been. But hey go.

 

[Mr Plums]

People have seen gains yes, but its the noise that it gives thats the best gain, these cars sound great with a cone!

Some listings are on offer at mo from same company. (£9.99)

I paid an extra couple of quid and went for a coloured one. Came about 10cm longer on each leg than need so had to be cut down.

No test with the phase 1 Airbox today. But with the fatty ik, decat and unsilenced centre it made 183 at efi.

 

[MrBlonde]

I was going to go for a coloured one, but wasn't sure how important the swaged ends were, so played safe and just went silver with swaged

 

[imprezaworks]

I don't think they really that important. If the pipe is tight it's all good

 

[loggyboy]

I was going to go for a coloured one, but wasn't sure how important the swaged ends were, so played safe and just went silver with swaged

Not important at all as there is no pressure involved. just an airtight seal which is easy, as both the standard pipe and the filter are fairly rubbery.

 

[oreA]

I fitted mine today - sounds tidy :smilingimp: - but the alloy bend got very hot after a 10 minute stop/start drive. Is this OK & to be expected?

Thanks :blush:.
