Will probably have to cut about 1" of material off of the top part of airbox back I've built for the passenger side intake to make room for the power steering fluid reservoir, but this gives you an idea of what I'm attempting to accomplish...
So far, so good -- with a bit of insulation material to make up for imperfect sealing between plastic components, should maintain OEM heat shielding and cool air ducting, while addding a better flowing set-up that would be achieved with just a panel filter.
Moreover, after I clean it up a bit, to a casual oberver it should look pretty stock once installed.
More updates soon with dynos to determine whether it was worth all the trouble... |
You might be looking at some turbulent air by using a cone filter inside a square box. It looks like air will come in and flow around the cone filter too and cause some turbulance going into the filter. I dont know if that will matter much but maybe using a square filter is still best. What I would like to see see is how much air does the engine require at WOT? And how much air does said filter flow. Using my Cobb tuner deivice I got a reading of 400+G/S on my K&N drop ins. They flow more than that so Im thinking the engine is getting all it asks for.
