I think the same result would've been achieved just by removing the bottom half of the box, and keeping the stock filter. Did something similar to my golf.
@GeorgeWhiting4 жыл бұрын
Not a bad idea and would save even more money! I now have the whole box removed with just the filter there!

George Whiting cool, should let a bit more sound come through now. Also removing the bonnet insulation made a huge difference for me.

George Whiting hey I have the same car as you and have the same filter I tried fitting it straight to the intake so I don’t have the box around but it won’t fit, what did you use to let it fit? Thanks
@GeorgeWhiting4 жыл бұрын
Ben Harvey Thats weird because I did the same and ran it without the backbox for a while and it fit fine, what doesn’t fit the actual filter onto the pipe or is it the fact there’s not enough room in the bay for it?

George Whiting the filter onto the pipe it’s fit fine onto the tube inside the box but not the tube outside of the box :/

@GeorgeWhiting3 жыл бұрын
If you see in the video, I explained that I could not fit the cover underneath no, the design of the ramair is to have no cover on the bottom only on the top, I also ran it with no cover for a while too! Hope that helps :)

Hi George, when you removed the top box and ran the air filter with no box around it what did you do about the wiring and the pipe that’s connected to the box? Because I have a ram air filter on my car but can barley hear it because it’s got the top box on it, really wanna remove the top box but confused on what to do about the little pipe that’s connected to it, do I just leave it hanging once I’ve taken the top box off?
@GeorgeWhiting3 жыл бұрын
Hi there, what I did was remove the air box fully and unplug the sensor that’s there and plug it back into the small piece of pipe you can take out of the intake box that holds the sensor, then add the filter on the end of that and leave it holding itself, the cable I just cable tied around the pipe I believe :) hope this helps! It will be fine just there holding itself up as long as you’ve tightened everything good:)

Veo que no pusiste la parte de abajo de la capsula plástica que aísla el filtro del aire caliente del motor, eso esta muy mal, primero por que la esponja del filtro corre riesgo de quemarse y producir mas estorbo al ingreso del aire, segundo por que el filtro se ensucia muy rápido por estar expuesto y tercero el motor necesita aire fresco para funcionar optimo, no aire caliente. Si el filtro nuevo no permite cerrar el habitáculo plástico, por que es muy grande o largo, es mejor que lo dejes original. como lo dejaste ahora, tienes riesgo de terminar dañando el motor por ingreso de oxigeno sin filtrar, terminaras consumiendo mas combustible y finalmente matando el motor por dentro.
