    The aby has the diverter hanging off the maf to turbo hose - I got rid of that hose so had to mount it somewhere else. It is just a length of aluminium sheet with 2 bolts to hold one end and 2 bolts with big washers that nip the WGFV onto the ali.

        What Cone for 3B

        What cone filter is best for the 3B? It seems that the standard airbox filters are different between the 3B and ABY, is there then also a different type of cone that would need to be ordered for the 3B?

        Am giving this some thought - as much for the noise as anything!

        How easy is it to fit a cone?

          Off topic but where do you get the small clips (as in your pic) for the vacuum hoses from?

            I've got them from Speedflow or SFS Performance before - I think they call those ones fuel hose clips - they have a nut and bolt to hold them shut so are stronger than the standard wee jubilees.

              forgot to ask - which size hose bore & wall for all the vacuum stuff on our cars?

                The K&N cone for the Ford Granada Cosworth seems to fit on the 3B (also check my second post on page 1 if you didn't allready).

                  Ford Grandad - urgh!

                  Is it the same as any of the other VW/Audi cars - so that the parts people at GSF might have it? They don't have it listed under S2.

                    possibly, but not sure, I'd look into it, oh and if you do look into it, please keep me posted

                        Hey audiman, which K&N is it? Is it the Granada cosworth one or another? Part number perhaps?

                              Am I right in wondering if actually the only specification that it needs to match is the size of the intake on the MAF? So long as the end of hte cone is the right size for that then it's fine? Or, have I missed something?

                                I believe you are correct. Is MAF diameter 80mm?
