It still feeds through the airbox and 3ft of pipework first , oh and through the interheater/crossover section.. Oh and if it provides the CLAIMED 18rwkw gain , then my mod must give a 36rwkw gain because it goes TWICE as hard lol...

You can make the pod filter setup like sashas yourself by modifying a piece of 45 silicon hose and hacking up the standard piece of plastic that goes from cross to turb. You will need to have the bend in the cross replicated and custom made though - to go from throttle bod to the rubber pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intake temps are expected to have dropped dramatically and turbo seems to spool much faster than before. Also torque into 3rd gear has increased HEAPS..Pulls very hard. Im impressed with the increase..Also sounds awesome coming on song.Hey... this is exactly what I want to do.. All I want to know is where? What? How much? I want to eliminate the crossover and maybe relocate the battery to the boot or otherside of enginebay, and get the 4" rapid intake/airbox, or mayr not one that big...
