My cone filter fitment

[s2_southwest]

well, here it is, nothing special and nothing new from what other people have done, bit it looks and sounds brilliant i think, aswell as maybe a slight increase of performance once i get round to having the car mapped.

2 90 80mm bends used, joined with ally pipe and a K&N universal 80mm filter.

Just need to weld on a bracket to secure the filter, make a heat shield and put in some sort of cold air feed pipe. Will post more pics when all is complete.

nice, just need a heatshield now too

Yep! one is on the way

What is the noticable difference in sound??turbo whistling and blow off ??

[coupegt]

nice work, def. on my "to do list"

Yes, you can hear the turbo spool up and whistle and the same sound you get from having a non-recirc dump valve. Thats the next thing to change on my to do list.

where did you get the pipe?

[rotoryboy]

I would think it's from here

[jeroen]

getting an non recirc dump valve wouldnt be the best idea IMHO since the amount of air that the maf has calculated wich would be in de inlet path is not correct any more! and could also take turbo slightly longer to get the air path full again

yep thats right, ordered it over the phone

Yes, was just saying that the sound you get from fitting a filter, is similar to the sound of having a non recirc DV, for those who havnt got a filter fitted yet.

I will be getting a recirc DV, forge probably

Looks nice!

I had spotted that its SFS hose, I wondered where the aluminium pipe came from..

While searching around the net for parts to do something like this to my car, I found this page with parts for a Ford. Some of the stuff is pretty interesting. There are configurable maf sensors, maf to speed density conversions, and various brackets, hoses, and adapters. I haven't determined if any of it is usable for a 3B, but here's the link:

Jason, the pipe was from a metal supplier here in plymouth, took me 4 trips to different companies just to find it, nightmare. Its 3in, couple mm wall thickness, ideal size for what i was usuing.

Good find there auditude!
