Newbie Question About Pod Filter And Bov

[POLICE]

Hey guys

I've put a new pod filter in my skyline due to the piping of the FMIC

anyway it's making shitloads of boost sound even at 2000rpm

is there a way I can control that like buy a boost controller or something???

I really have no idea about forced induction stuff

so if any1 has a pic of where they installed their boost controller that'll be much appreciated

Thanks

It's not the amount of boost it's the type of filter.

You can box it and feed it some air. That would quiet it down a fair bit.

Whay type of filter is it? material? brand? model?

[TTT]

that's what a pod does.

as above.

box it.

Search the forums for COLD+AIR+BOX or COLD+AIR+INTAKE

are you certain that the stock air box can't be slightly modified to still fit?

I've actually got the airbox, the brand is the netami gold pod filter

there is a hole where the old SMIC piping was,

of which I connected a tube for air intake under the front bar

it makes less noise with the air box but still quite annoyiny when all I want is to drive it normally

the standard airbox can be modified but I'd have to cut a large chunk out of the air intake

which will render it to be not very efficient

When you gota pod filter on, it will make that sucking noise. Its what a pod does.

No point putting a boost controller in to lower the boost on your stock turbo. (BTW Your turbo is stock right?)

I like have the sucking noise with my car, sounds great!

What material is it made from? paper? cotton? steel?

If you want to keep the pod - get one that is paper or cotton - that will quiten it down.

else

fit the stock air box up with a paper or highflow panel filter.

just keep the pod i am sure its not that load lol

or put the stock one back in

DUDE that suction noise is hectic

I love induction noise!!

[blind_elk]

At 2000 rpm, I highly doubt it's boost noise.

It's simply induction noise - the sound of air rushing into the pod. A boost controller won't affect it.

i know what you could be going through, i just took the pod filter of my v8 ute and put the the big airbox with over the radiator surround intake (mouth) because the sound of the induction noise on the pod (paper filter) was very loud, even idleing...

but the HKS pod pn (foam pod filter) my r33, the induction noise gets louder when you are comming onto boost, i do like the induction noise it gives, a deep howling noise...

[R338OY]

The induction sound is air sucked through the pod AND the compressor turbine spinning and compressing that air, which was previously muffled with the stock airbox + filter. It's normal (and sounds sahweet) as you come on boost from around 2000RPM+.

if anyone is interested, I have a Blitz pod and Blitz pod adapter that I removed to fit the stock air box.

made HEAPS of noise with the Blitz.

chicks will definitely fornicate with you if you buy the Blitz pod.

proof on purchase?

[TTT]

proof on purchase?

are you asking me out?

[RBwhatever]

haha @ GTST.

There is no way of getting rid of the induction noise with the pod, even if you box it. You'd need some thick heat insulation in there to make quieten it down, but even then I'd highly doubt it'd get rid of the noise like a stock air box.

Pod induction noise, you either love it or hate it. Or just learn to live with it.

lol dickhead, i was asking for the certificate of authenticity that chicks grab ur ballz

but u wrecked it now

LOL
