Viper help!

[Bennigin]

Hey guys, simple question i cant find any threads on...

Do i need to remove this tube that runds down to teh underside of the car and/or does or has anyone left it in and just fitted teh viper kit over the top??

Thanks
benn

 

[kully]

the caf runs down there leave it on m8 otherwise u suck hot air


wheres u caf pipe that comes wid the viper , put that on

 

[Bennigin]

so what would be the best way to seal it?? Just but teh cable tie around the two tubed thus making a seal??

 

[Bennigin]

cos at the moment, it isnt consistent, so the fact warm air is going in, would be why!

 

[kully]

jubilee clip .

 

[Fred@BTM]

no no no, for best results, rip all that crap out of there

 

[Bennigin]

Forgive my ameturness!

so insert the existing intake into the viper one, and then seal with with a jubilee clip - as far down the intake as possible (away from engine) or the other way?

 

[Bennigin]

no no no, for best results, rip all that crap out of there

is there space and how!

 

[kully]

lol:star:

 

[Bennigin]

would that mean removing teh headlight or the bumper to do it!?

 

[kully]

look at me pics

 

[Fred@BTM]

take off passenger wheel, pull arch liner out of the way, remove all the crap behind it (leave the horn in!)

run feed pipe down where all the crap was, you now have 2 options, feed to the front bumper lower grille, or fog light

 

[Bennigin]

sure i will (lol how!)

 

[Fred@BTM]

easier to remove front bumper and headlight yes (easy jobs, don't be scared)

so not using the exisiting lower box at all??:S

 

[Bennigin]

but i dunno how to remove the bumber on a clio yet!

 

[Fred@BTM]

2 x 10mm bolts under each arch (remove arch liners)

2 under the front spoiller (about 12inch back)

a sharp tug, and it's off

 

[Bennigin]

excellent, will get to it, one other thing.

Conect the viper intake to the existing box? and if not, how do you attach it to the front grille! Thanks

 

[Fred@BTM]

no, remove all of the OE crap and put it in in the bin!

remove -

complete airbox (2 halfs)
all oe feed pipes
stupid valve under arch liner (block off vaccum pipe)

 

[Bennigin]

just leave teh pipe hanging down there!?

 

[kully]

ho long is ur caf ............... u might need to order an extension 1 to feed to the lower grill ,

 

[Bennigin]

not long enough! Do you guys take the air feed down fast the headlight over the wiring loom thought that gap??

there isnt enought space so i've just put the over the existing tube for now....

Saying that, when pushing her, in 2nd, it doesnt really kick in until5.5/6k revs.... i think this is because there is air being pulled in from thsi connection not being seal enough? After that she's just awesome!

[Bennigin]

where did u buy ur viper from , tell them to order extension hose , pipercross will give it free as long as u proove purchase .

 

[Bennigin]

k-tech, so that shouldn't be a prob

 

[kully]

k-tech, so that shouldn't be a prob

yep ....phone em 70mm by 1 metre , ask for 1.5 metres to b sure

 

[Bennigin]

Okkkkkkk!

I had no joy removing the bumper sunday morning, i gave it a good tug from both sides, and no movement, any help??

 

[ant]

[kully]

me had the garage fit my cold air feed from underneath , had it up on the ramps removing the undercover panel ..........:star:

 

[Bennigin]

ok, reallllly pulling on it....i couldsee the bumper flexing!!! :S

 

[Neil G]

no, remove all of the OE crap and put it in in the bin!

remove -

complete airbox (2 halfs)
all oe feed pipes
stupid valve under arch liner (block off vaccum pipe)

The 'stupid valve' changes the length of the intakes improving midrange torque...best left in place

 

[ant]

well if its not coming off you need to pull harder!! :approve:

it does go with some effort!
