best pod filters

[matchtheclown]

does anyone where I could get this ARC for our cars?

EDIT: Never mind, found them on RHD Japan. But is't worth it?

I thought everyone had one of these Just me hey? Mine get's great induction from the battery it is sandwiched against.

my vr4 has the stock air setup but is missing the snorkel that connects the box to the front. is this bad? should i go about getting the missing part replaced? or is it fine how it is?

 

[Mac Dog]

better to get the snorkel otherwise its just sucking in the nice warm air from the engine bay!

i am using a K&N oval shaped pod

same as what RPW reccomend, they charge about $150 for pod and mounting braket, +postage, i picked the pod up from autobahn for $80 and made a bracket for cost of scrap metal. the only thing is you need to have the filter somewhere it will not be sucking hot engine bay air, and wont get wet at the same time either, i am currently working on a heat shield to go around it

on that note... anyone know where I can source another snorkel?

 

[Guest]

when i finish my setup i wont be needing mine

Alex - NZ is probably your best bet. Either look on trademe or send VR4WGN on cvr4 a pm

 

[naughtika]

isn't vr4wgn also here? which he recently had a big $$$ repair bill?!

 

[bradc]

probably another guy using the same nick

i really need to relocate my battery to the boot however in the galant i have no where to bolt it... i really want to work on a cold air setup.

 

[naughtika]

drill lotsa holes in the boot.. you'll love it.. ask LeeButts as he's experienced this.. ROFL

*thinks Steve Erkle carrying a sack full of tennis balls* Hey, whatever floats ya boat, Hales

 

[naughtika]

Hayley.. damn girl.. you got balls.. LOL

back on topic anyway.. what would you guys prefer if a proper cold air intake is made up? a cylindrical type or oval like what rpw's selling?!

 

[frozen]

the oval is supposedly better so it doesnt spin through the piping as much - gives a better reading for those retaining the MAF.. dont worry about correcting me if im wrong i know where the post is haha

 

[Guest]

yeah id go with the oval one for same reasons as above.

 

[naughtika]

even if you had a straight pipe before the MAF!!?

 

[frozen]

if it starts to spin its going to slightly slow down by the time it reaches the maf, but it would probably still spin better safe than sorry - im not air so i cant tell you first hand whether or not its going to spin lol
