Hcr32 Standard Airbox Over Pod Filter?

[abu]

GTST is right, thats what I used and put the air intake to the front bar for a ram effect which works well and thanks for linking to my thread GTST a picture explains better.If you look close at the airbox you will see the afm plug is into the air box,using an old afm this is an easy mod and keeps the boys in blue of your back .

Abu the airbox to turbo pipe is 90mm same at turbo inlet and custon outlet on the airbox all made to look as stock as possible .If you look close at the engine pic in the link you can see between the crossover pipe and the rockercover the plumb back pipe which plumbs back the the new airbox to turbo pipe so all looks legal

cheers Peter

Thanks for that Peter.

Yeah when you look closely, you can see the little things you pointed out. Its all very neat and subtle!

Your running a MAP hence the AFM plug?

I run a return flow cooler setup so I can't do the CAI from the stock cooler piping holes, is there any other good possible way of doing it?

I was thinking from the little gap behind the headlight, sort of were the stock snorkel goes, could I make a CAI from there into the front bar?

I got a GTR bar like yours so gets plenty of airflow through it, and plenty of room to hide a duct behind it now that the stock cooler is out!

Does anyone have any recommendations?

you may be able to put a hole on the SIDE of the bottom half of the air box.

then make another hole down there next to the intercooler pipes.

then route a CAI in from there..

If you still have your SMIC, then it wouldn't be a good idea to have a pipe blocking some of it to get air to the filter.

a hole in the box as described above, with a pipe going from there to say 3 cm out of the bottom of the hole you put int he chassis would still be beneficial as it would still "SUCK" cold air from there..

it just wouldn't have the ram air effect that a CAI facing forward on the front bar would have.

My liberty setup is different but I'll take a few pics over the weekend to show you what a small but effective CAI would look like.

i've gone as far as that by cutting that little strip behind the headlight which allows you to fit a bigger diametre hose/pvc pipe through.Havent gone any further then facing the pvc pipe down as any further it obstructs my smic.

i use a 90deg pvc down pipe joiner,its rectangle no round either so it fits tight.

Cheers GTST. thats gonna be my job this weekend.

Not a bad idea but not prepared to cut any holes in the chassis! Been trying to avoid that lol

I may have to find another way to get air into the box without cutting a hole in the chassis, I have a write up on a mod you can do somewhere behind the headlight to allow more into the engine bay?

I've got it at home, but I will see if I can find it now. Its quiet a good mod, and pretty easy to do!

Yeah I think that what I'm talking about, you can remove like a panel or section yeah?
