Hey I have been looking around for what actually is legal and what isn't. Specifically looking at air intake. I can't find SA specific info.

Looked here: http://www.sa.gov.au/subject/Transport%2C+travel+and+motoring/Motoring/Vehicles+and+registration/Vehicle+standards+and+modifications

I couldn't find it or it doesn't say about intake. Anyone here know the legalities behind air intake?

Generally speaking they don't care as long as its "fixed" so u could put a pod filter where your air box is but u would need a clamp around the base or end of the pod then to the engine bay or engine so it cant fling off in a accident situation

As far as " ss growlers " or under battery intakes are concerned they dont care

My ba went to regency with a rapid v3.0 kit on no dramas

Whats your concern in general ? What u looking to do ?

Just curious. I would like to modify the air intake at som stage, without causing any legal issues, voiding insurance (RAA) and extended warranty (ford/Allianz). I think my issue will be the extended warranty, it states on the policy that I can't do any modifications that changes the specifications of the vehicle. A vague statement.

Something like a K&N panel filter and the fg xr8 air intake is more than enough to flow 400rwkw and if u want something a bit more fancy a ss growler kit is ok bit exxy but ebay has them half reasonable priced the cream of the crop is the KPM fpv set up at around $650 its the ducks guts and due to it being a ford product I would put a large sum Of coin on the fact no warranty or extended would deny u a claim if u had to

Inlet is a bit larger isn't it (xr8)? Not a lot on eBay at the moment. What do you recon I'd expect to pay?
