ali_legend Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hi guys ive got a cone airfilter in my n/a but i realised when i popped the bonnet after a long trip that the air filter was getting alot of hot air compared to what i thought. i think its time to relocate the filter now. I dont want to spend ££££ on air filter relocation kits so does ny1 out there no a way to relocate the air filter. e.g. a different form of pipe that would work.? cheers everyone.p.s No stupid ideas, such as stick it out of the bonnnet.! LOL :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
