Hey guys... Just a short thread on this, installed my MTC cai today with the ITG filter kit... Great piece of kit for the money and fits together nicely..
Matthew who makes the kit is a very nice fellow, very helpful. Hes just started his own company recently making these kits and they come in a few different colours.. theres a few threads going around at the moment, but heres mine, as hes being doing them a wee while and the kits have progessed since he 1st started doing them...
Completed installation in just over an hour.. The hardest parts of installation is getting the old engine cover mounts removed from the top where the new heat shield is to be installed, there a 2 10mm bolts underneath to be took off 1st, then they just unscrew.. A good set of mole grips is also required to removed some of he spring clips but come out relatively easy if you have the right tools.. I'm also going to get a small jubilee for the end of the recirculation pipe to just firm it up that wee bit more..... Had to trim some of the pipework at the filter for a nice fit, but obviously this will vary with each filter..
1st impressions are good... complete change in low end delivery and now feels a lot smoother with a nice sounding bit of suction.. Anyway i'm a happy camper, now for the uprated DV and TTS cover...
If anyones interested in these kits, contact Matthew via txt on 07976469664 for info and prices on your own car...
Enjoy the pics..... :thumbsup:
Start of Job....
Where extra jubilee will be fit for extra tightness...
Snug fit after some pipe trimming....
OCD kicking in having to get everything level... Even the name ha
Finished Job....
