the way i want to pipe it up. gonna have to go up and over the mani i think.
im going custom all the way and having an upright cooler on the passenger side of the bumper so i wont have to move the number plate!

Right guys, this is up for sale as I can't be bothered to deal with the boost creep (which can be done by getting a smaller filter, porting the wastegate or having some form of boost control) so I think I shall be getting rid of it.

Its only 1 day old and has been slightly adapted to make sure its a perfect fit.

Want £50 for it.

I think I know what you mean. Autofixed one is too long, but I'm not sure why you'd want to do that :confused:. Your going to get more lag with longer pipes, plus higher intake temps with the pipework running over the mani. If there were better gains/less lag to be had, then fair enough, but if you're doing that purely for aesthetics because you want a centred number plate, you're nuts :p.

the blitz pipework runs over the mani, plus it will have longer pipework than mine and a larger cooler. its not for aesthetics at all. just for ease of installation.

the pipework will probably be about the same overall legth as the autofixed kit when im done!

doesnt matter if the pipework runs over the mani, its before the cooler. so if the cooler is efficient enough it wont matter!

relocation airfilter idea number 54099....

i have had another great idea for air con people!!because i have a pitbike...i have 3 spare air filters......26mm at the end.....i can get a 90 degree reducing elbow from 38mm to 25mm

the filter is only small though(il get pic) so would it be ok?its a foam one....

how about try it, stop posting 54099 threads about the same thing, and put your..."theory"...to test, and report instead...
