R33 Cai With Factory Air Box?

[ECR-033]

I have recently put a FMIC on my 33, as the intake pipe from the FMIC was in the way of the snorkel i changed to a pod filter. After about 2days i got sick of hearing it sucking so i decided to pull it out and go back to the factory air box. The only problem is now that the snorkel is not on it has no cold air going into the filter, so its only getting hot air from the engine. Is having only hot air going in a bad thing, or will i just loose a few kw's?

my 2 questions are

1. Is there a way to make a CAI or can a buy one from somewhere that allows me to keep the factory airbox?

2. Is there a pod filter that wont make that annoying hissing noise every time i accellerate?

any help would be great

cheers guys/girls

might have to make a box to house your pod, and insulate it

Been searching for a thread for you with no luck, but someone here modded the snorkel to fit.

You need to cut a section of it out where it fouls the pipe, and then plastic weld a piece back in to cover the hole.

Shouldnt be overly difficult.

That or splash out and get a Blitz LM or a JJR Stealth

Thanx for taking the time to look. I did a search but the closest i found was a guide to custom fiberglass the full airbox and snorkel but that is a bit extream for me.

I have a mate who works at a crash repair so ill get on the phone to him and see if he can do a weld to it.

was originally goin to go for the blitz LM but after i heard the cost i went in another direction

Yeah thats all i found too.

Im pretty sure it was a Stagea too, so that may narrow the search.

I feel your pain I bought a Blitz LM, but i was lucky and got in before the crash so it was only a couple hundred more than it would have cost to get a JJR shipped to NZ.

And you can understand why i spent the extra...
