RS2 airbox

[marks2]

if he has the RS2 box fit it Mihnea reckoned you get about 5hp fitting it and max of 8hp after tuning if your lucky.

in that case will reccomend he does get one. i take it to be a straight fit to the ABY.

Yeah no problems at all. Its only the bottom bit that is different.

Greg, both parts of the RS2 airbox are different to the S2 airbox. I found this out when I fitted mine

[Greg_S]

are they? whats the difference?

Have a close look at the two airboxes at the top of this page, you'll notice that the RS2 part is much thicker just under where the MAF lives, as can be seen above

[marks2]

how much would an rs2 airbox set me back, and what the chances of any one having one liying around.

[marks2]

hi when changing the s2 airbox for an RS2 airbox, would i also have to change the sensor sitting on top of the pipe leading to the box?

keeping inmind that we have an complete rs2 setup!!

thanks

RS2 MAF and S2 MAF are different...I think it is a scaling thing but Mihnea would confirm. Which ECU are you using with your 'full RS2 setup'?

am using an RS2 ECU MTM chipped. But am hoping that i can have Mihnea look at it to see if he can increase the performance, as my ecu is using a generic chip.

[Greg_S]

he should be able to map the car with the S2 MAF or RS2 MAF but the RS2 one is prefered. I think all that may need changing is a resistor in the ecu maybe?

How good (bad) is the 3B airbox compared to ABY and ADU? Seem more restrictive, don't know about filter surface area but I guess that is smaller too.

I am running a Green Filter and modified original heat shield + s/s steel U-bend, but would like to back to stealth mode again.. And maybe even the MAF stays clean!!

[Greg_S]

I couldnt tell you that one TBH, not really looked at 3B airbox that close, someone on here may know though ?

Fitted ABY airbox to my 3b, definately a lot easier to get at the filter, has bigger volume also, and the inlet is at the front on the ABY box asa pposed to the side right next to the turbo on 3b.

but now i have an ITG cone (well more like a big sponge really)

The rs2 airbox is nice upgrade to ABY S2 Sedan or Coupe S2. For the 3B 200 I modified 2 big trumpets to replace the original entry. Measurements showed reduced flow resistance. Measurements were done with truck air filter flow indicator tool. Recommended upgrade.

He guys i,m trying this DAHLBACK replica.;2x 90 + 1x 45 alupipes.they gona be solded together,..and i will cut a heatshield also in a nice form{in aluminium} .if jou will use a normal size filter instead off this 30cm monster you dont need the 1x45 bent ......more picture,s when it,s fitted to my RS2-COUPE... {i,m waiting for my a dry APEXI filter to come.}...
