1.8t air box modifications, what have you done?

[Markeyboy]

im in the process of getting my car ready for a stage 2 remap and on the list is to modify and improve the air inlets to the airbox,

so far i have smoothed the inside of the box, but now im trying to ger some cold air feed ducting to the dirty side of the filter box, but cant seem to find any decent way of doing this!

has any one got any pics of what they have done?

cheers

i smoothed my airbox
jetex panel filter
air intake going from bottom of the bumper to the airbox (got rid of the standard intake pipe going into the wing)

tuffy thats wicked!

jay did u take the air feed down the side of the battery near the headlight? did you notice any improvements?

 

[jay1601]

yeah it is, just enough room for it to pass through

hard to say about seeing any gains, as i haven't really driven the car without. i fitted it the day i got the car
