Xr8 Induction In An Xr6T?

[TRAUMA]

Greetings,

I currently have installed in my BF XR6T a Growler CAI kit in place of the factory airbox.

There are two Big Mouth over the radiator induction kits for the same series:

http://www.ssinductions.com.au/products/Ford-BA-Boss-V8-Big-Mouth-Cold-Air-Induction.html

My question is:

is it possible to fit the V8 version to my Growler airbox for a larger OTR induction?

Or does anyone know of other manufacturers that make OTR induction kits to replace the factory snorkle?

Cheers

UPDATE:

Spoke with SS Inductions and the only compatible part is their "CAI-021" for BF XR6T as it is made to withstand a higher heat and not warp due to the turbo engine.

Unfortunately this part is discontinued!

Does anyone know of other manufacturers that make OTR induction kits to replace the factory snorkel, that will fit to the standard BF XR6T airbox?

LOL

Yeah the factory units weren't made to withstand high heat, they melt on the way home from the dealer..

lol..

SS said that their OTR kit "CAI-020" (BF 6CYL non-turbo version) could warp and because of that it's not covered by warranty if it's installed in a XR6T.

My mate suggested if I can't find the turbo version then I could consider removing the rubber seal/mold above the firewall at the back part of the bonnet, so that the heat is dissipated towards the windshield instead of back over the radiator. And then install the non-turbo version with less chance of the plastic warping..

Any thoughts??
