What is with the f**king attack of you people ... Get a life ... All I have said is that "It was like that when I bought it" ....

I was asked does it work ...

Beats the hell out of me, but the power output of the car seems to be fine ...

I don't go off on a tangent and brag about sh*t ... So back up ... Forums are meant to be her to help people, not just try to pay out on them ...

I didnt see anyone pay out on you and noone was attacking you mate so take your own advice. Everyone has posted some useful info to answer your question in some depth. Appreciate the help and advice people give you for free...

Fair enough ...

Owwwkay...

Moving right along, the tech info so far has been good.

I've found out the hard way what hot air does in the intake area. Having a GR with the MAF sensor right near the intake, the consequences of hot air near the intake have caused me no end of idle problems. Took me 12 months to figure out why the car stalled at idle in regular intervals... when the thermo fans kicked in the hot was being channeled thru a gap in my air box, the MAF picked it up & decided to tell the ECU to slow the fuel injection to match the non-dense air going in....

Thats the biggest cause of hot air in the engine bay behind the exhaust, the thermo fans...

Well ...

Thanks Payaya & Bennoz for the useful information ... Bennoz, I think I am going to have a close look at your set up if we get to meet on one of the NSW cruises ...

And well, seems like there is a lot of hot air getting around, and not just in my engine bay ...

Rather than start a new topic i figured i might aswell dig up my original thread........

As you can see from the photos below ( sorry about the size ) ive upgraded from
the ghetto intake at the start of the thread to a K&N Apollo....... and as with any new
Mod i can feel all the extra ponies galloping under the hood ....... which as always is probably all in my head

that looks like a great set up well done

Thanks, i was going to save it for the DIY day along with my slam panel, dial surrounds, white dials, re-trims..... ect. But im working that day so im just doing them one at a time and ill catch up (and show off) with everyone at the next cruise

Where did you get the K&N pod cover ... & how much ...

It looks pretty sweet, but don't think it would fit over my Apexi pod ... But could be worth a shot ...

Bought it as a whole unit from this place:

just wondering, since you got an aftermarket intake pipe where is your crankcase vent valve going to? coz on mine theres a nozzle from the side of the stock intake pipe and i dont see a catch can in there

Its connected to the back of the encloser after the filter..... have a look at the last 2 photos and you should be able to see the black tubing heading towards the vent valve
