V6 airbox

[smitchell1]

Na mine doesnt even touch the coolant hose, even if it does move slightly i have the bulky side of the jubilie clip there to stop it. (I had that propblem with the poxy simota, split my coolant hose twice)

ebay item number 330361871317

best check with one of the other guys who have got it though to double check! just in case im wrong!

Can anyone confirm that is the right CAF please for that airbox?

 

[Sir_Dave]

Its correct.

 

[Impey]

so there worth it then the v6 espace air box??

 

[Justin_16vT]

is the rubber strap needed??

 

[Jonny1*2]

I think it was def worth it, my car as standard ran 161hp, got it on the rollers yesterday after adding ktec exhaust, matched inlets, remap and V6 airbox with ITG filter and it made 170hp!!

Thought it would have made more than that, still not bad though.

102mm

 

[stuart1989]

Do you just take the ducting to the bottom grill? Is there something to zip tie it to? Going to pop into renault tomorrow to get the box ordered

 

[Jonny1*2]

the 102 ducting won't fit down into the arch on the FF, but not sure about the cup. You'll have to remove or modify the horn location, remove the acoustic valve and see. Both easy jobs. There will be no need to zip tie as it will more than likely be a squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze.

 

[smitchell1]

Yeah i was kind of hoping for more but iv got a few ideas and prob going to play around with the mapping to see if i can sqeeeze a few more hp out of, it feels so much more urgent on the round now though.

did you do the mapping yourself? live mapping on RR?

 

[brownale01]

i tried to run mine down by the arch but the ducting is far too big how have people ran it past their grill? anyone got any closer pictures or can get some?

cheers

 

[smitchell1]

Iv got the RS Tuner on it at the moment but am thinking about paying RS Tuning a visit for a live map at the moment??

 

[Jonny1*2]

you'd get better gains I recon if you did. live RR mapping will give much better results.

 

[MarkCup]

Here's mine...

With this, a Ktec stealth exhaust, R-Sport ECU, and no power-steering it gives a consistent 186 bhp. Fitting this and removing the power steering gave me 10 bhp, so that's about 3bhp or so just for this filter.

Mine ends here...

It's strictly for Cup owners only though unless you rip out your air-con.

You've got to be happy with losing the fuel rail guard as well.

I like this idea but surely it would benefit a lot more if the cold air feed pipe was as short as possible?? Where does it route to??

were dose ur battery go dose it still fit in there

 

[leer6]

where is everyone getting the CAF from to fit that airbox?

what dose (caf ) mean :S

 

[Jonny1*2]

what dose (caf ) mean :S

cold air feed mate

Why would Renault not fit this as std if it works better??

 

[Raptor6767]

Why would Renault not fit this as std if it works better??

Production costs, environmental issues, mpg issues,...who knows...

 

[Jonny1*2]

Why would Renault not fit this as std if it works better??

Probably some regulation bollox like it was with the acoustic valve. the cup race cars used an open cone initially, but switched to the v6 box. must have some benefits

 

[Gaz_]

Fitted into the standard airbox location. That & a ktec stealth gave me 177bhp at Surrey Rolling Road on a 172 cup.

Great mod imho. In fact, im going to fit one to my vts ...

So what box is this, clio V6?

 

[Jonny1*2]

lol espace v6 mate. presume you were taking the piss, but never know

 

[pa.ge]

i thought this is 3.0l clio V6

look good....

 

[Gaz_]

Yep, that is.

 

[Gaz_]

So the difference between the Espace box, and phase 1 172 box is the intakes?

Been a while since i've been round the 'in' mods on the 172's. I used to have a Maxogen on my old Cup

 

[delcbr]

can someone give the part no. for the clio phase 1 airbox as iam interested in ordering 1 up as it is designed for the clio after all with the 2 smaller intakes unlike the espace v6 airbox with 1 large air intake.

 

[bradharding24]

 

[lindleyp]

sorry but on merlin motorsport im finding it hard to source the ITG filter i need with the airbox, even wit the code on here, sorry, help please

 

[seanburns182]

the actual code is.................... itg-bh203
i had bother trying to find it aswell when i was looking
i ended up buying this from ruderacing.co.uk.................PX1486
just personal preference, there is a kandn one aswell

 

[kevin.s]

now thats an induction set up. seen the same sort of thing on the civic type r`s and they are suposed to work really well.

 

[Justin_16vT]

Its what the GrA mk1's used to use. I'm doing a similar set up on my turbo

It works really well, but you cant run standard mounts if you want it to fit properly.

 

[joker83]

I think it's better phase 1 airbox...have 2 small hole but the area are in total bigger than V6...i'ts better 2 small because the pressure remain too high...it's the same case of water...

This is my setup...with the pipercross CAF

 

[Fernando46]

No mate its an espace V6 airbox!

[Fernando46]

[DaveL485]
