Feeding colder air would be a better proposition.. I find it hard to believe that an open pod in the engine bay will get colder air than from the stock snorkel..

It is around 1% for every 4 degrees I believe.. It would be better to try and find a cold source of air e.g. if you have a front mount, feed air from where the Side mount used to be.. or use something such as Maxxs where it sucks using the stock snorkel..

I don't understand how having a pod behind a headlight is going to get cold air fed to it.. That's my thoughts anyway..

You are all wrong.

Mad082 is correct.

Un shielded pod is better..

I might just ring up MINES factory and let them know that they should quickly bolt up a $40 MONZA pod filter to their R34 gtr which uses a stock air box with after market duct and filter at the moment.

Oh and get rid of the duct as it’s not necessary with the pod there.

This will give them more power and possibly a WHOLE second off their time at the time attack trials they do.

lol at the mines GTR and time attack trials.

Hardly related to street use/speeds + Its making up around 600bhp, clearly the stock air box isn't going to cut it at those power levels.

So stock airbox for sensible street power levels as I stated in a previous post.

well.. gee.. lets all go get carried away here.. lol..

I don't see how comparing a mines GT-R to street cars is really the best example.. how many times do you see the mines GT-R stuck in bumper to bumper traffic???..

Anyways.. Top Gear is on.. so i'm going to watch that!!..

I think you missed my point.

I made the reference to the mines gtr to show that even a car with around 600hp was still using a stock GTR airbox with their own enlarged intake snorkel.

This MAD082 guy is blabbering that a pod…. No an un-shielded pod is better than a pod filter in a box or partition which is better than a panel filter in the stock air box.

His reasoning is that it can suck in more air.. wether it’s hot or not does not matter cause it’s more air and the intercooler will fix the temp issue.

BULLSH*T

The fact is, lower temps means more power.

Before the cooler, after cooler, in the plenum.. whatever.

Cooler means more power is capable.

People on here have over 250rwkw in GTST’s or GTT’s with stock air box and intake snorkel and rubber duct from afm to turbo.

People have close to 300rwkw in gtr’s with stock air box and intake and rubber duct from afms to turbos.

I see no reason to replace the stock Nissan skyline air box unless you have over those sorts of rough figures.

And even if you do, the mines GTR factory air box MODDED with new CAI snorkel allowing enough air flow for 600hp is good enough, I’m sure you can do the same for your car.

R32 gtst’s have the duct in the bottom half, then the filter above it, and then the afm pipe on top of that.

Once you get a fmic, get some 3 inch PVC pipe and some bends, duct it from the front bar (in the duct where the stock smic opening is, drill a 3 inch hole under your factory air box and duct it up.

You will never run out of fresh cold air in your air box.

R33 gtst’s may have a little more difficulty as they have the intake on the top of the box, then the filter then the afm pipe under that.

So you would have to design another CAI to maybe pipe in to the other side of the air box (left side has factory snorkel).

I just think that a pod filter is not required for most people.

You want fully sick induction sound bro?, this post is not for you.

You want the performance without the look at me noise and hassles from cops for being illegal?, then put a hi flow panel filter in your stock box and maybe work out a new CAI to it.

GTST

I read your first post about the mines gtr incorrectly.

So please ignore my post following.

I also did.. I believe that you.. myself and cubes are all in agreence..
