Airbox

[Dan_s2_coupe]

When i bought my S2 it had a big K&N fitted sounded really nice with induction noisy and wastegate chatter

But reading some threads people said airboxs were better so i tryed it

and OMG it makes a lot of differents at cruising speed so much better pull

But i really miss my noise that roar from the filter then the wastegate and recerculating dumpvalve that came back through the filter now its gone

any 1 no how i can fix this i want the sound and the ulling power dunno wot 2 do HELP!!!

if you get an RS2 airbox and a decent panel filter you will get some of the induction noise back. also if you make a heat shield and air ducting for the cone filter it will work better too

That doesnt filter out small particulates though does it - its only a mesh and not a very fine one at that...
Your daft mate....

Indeed, I went from a stock S2 to an RS2 airbox, but did not have the RS2 air duct panel which the trumpet fits through, so I removed the trumpet and had an open RS2 airbox. There was a significant increase in both induction noise and WG chatter.

When I then fitted the trumpet and the airduct panel it reduced both to a nice level...louder than stock S2 but not chav loud

RS2 airboxes tend to go for around £100 on German ebay. Took me about 6 months to get one though as they are not the most common of parts.
