Mudman Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Was thinking its time to clean the pop charger so was having a trawl for cleaner and gauze oil when I noticed a guide on fitting a JWT charger which I have. Only problem and this may explain why mine is a bit quiet is the the guide mentions fitting the side of the heat plate onto the air rubber air duct. Not a external snorkel but just a bit of rubber that sort of plugs the hole. Erk! Says I I don't seem to have one of these which may explain the lack of sound. Looking at the JWT kit this bit is not part of it so a presuming its an OEM part of the panel filter. Before anyone asks yes it was like this when I bought the car and it's also been through Abbey for Uprev so presumed all was well So question is Is the duct crucial to the pop charger efficient as I reckon it is as the air is not channeled 2. can I get a spare ? 3. has anyone got one for a DE kicking around. ? Thanks Quote
Zedd Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I think I know what you mean as I screwed mine into the little plastic snorkel, which was a complete bitch to do. Had no fingers left afterwards lol So your heat shield has been sort of loose then? Think it does channel the air a little bit, but don't see why it would make it louder....unless I have got the wrong end of the stick? Quote
Ekona Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 So you're missing the big black plastic bit on the LHS from here? Where the screw goes into? I wouldn't worry too much about it, but you can probably pick one up for a few quid from a breaker. Quote
Mudman Posted January 22, 2015 Author Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Yep that's the bit I have the economy version ! Thats the bonnet brace BTW looks like there's something going through the hole ! Best give Clarke Motorsport a PM ! Edited January 22, 2015 by Mudman Quote
