  • s2/rs2 airbox

    i have used the search button to try and figure this one out but i have had no joy with any of my searches, so maybe you kind people can enlighten me, whats the differance between and ABY airbox and an RS2 airbox and is there any gains to be had from the swap?

    The air flow apperture in the front of the RS2 airbox is much bigger, and yes it increases performance....

    There is a modification write up on here to make the apperture bigger in the ABY one.

          The RS2 box also has more volume than the ABY box, the top half is larger

                            just that and nothing else,it's all about getting the hole right.no need for any other mods.just fitted the airbox and it work perfect on my rs2.
                            on the S2 you might have to make the hole behind the light a little wider by using thesame pipe

                              As well as the input pipe size, the flow through the filter in the ABY airbox is somewhat restricted by the proximity of the lid, in the RS2 airbox the filter is mounted lower, ie. the lid is deeper and the base is shorter, to give better flow. If you look in my coupe thread (link in my sig) there are some comparison pictures.
