glrnet Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Choose what YOU like, the intake tube will look a bit "lonely" if you don't bling the rest of your engine bay imho. Here's mine, but I modified it to use the standard airbox:- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 That engine bay is sensational. I'm going to open the bonnet for the second time this weekend, it was filthy under their last time, I hope it'll be mysteriously clean this time, or I'll have to get cleaning. Noob question alert. Why use the standard air box on the K&N? I thought (probably wrongly) the coney but on the end was the special part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 It is if you want the noise, I know, I'm an old fart Heat sink should be a consideration too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4RE Leather Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I think you need a nice HR box under there papa:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluke Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 It is if you want the noise, I know, I'm an old fart Heat sink should be a consideration too. I haven't got my car yet, but have been reading up and dreaming of the mods I want to do. I love the extra noise you get from an induction kit, but having tried various induction kits on my MX5, I gave up because of the loss of low down grunt. The heat soak of the alloy pipe and the hot air being drawn in, really murdered the engine and it was especially noticeable during the summer months, not to mention the extra fuel I was using, and in the end I went over to a supercharger. One of the things that MX5 owners do, is to use a decent panel filter and drill the airbox. That way they got the sound and not as much heat. What do you guys normally do to combat the problem?

rtbiscuit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 They're all Findus tuners....proper pony chasers; so they all go panel filter stock setup, and if a DE engine then a flyboy velocity stack to squeeze the extra horses out. But those that like a nice noise use a range of things like jwt pop chargers, typhoons, BMC CDA, etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
