Towbar Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Right people i running a td04 hybrid setup on my 82, but i need a airfilter,The only problem i have is that my turbo inlet is facing the side of my oil filter, so i have very limited space, approx 3" between turbo inlet and oil filter.Am going to try a silicone bend but thats looking doubtful just due to the lack of room?Surely other people must have come across this before?Thanx chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Banbury Glanza Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I had to cut my 90 down but it fits. This isn't a very good pic but you get the idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites

funny onion Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I can get a silicone elbow on mine, but my intercooler is far too big for a filter. Havnt ran a filter or mesh for a year now and it's been fine (apart from the melted pistons, but that wasn't because I didn't run an air filter lol). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevonGT Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I used to run mesh, but I managed to get an air filter in. Tight though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Towbar Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 Well the bend is on, its bloody tight lol but alot happier with a filter, test drive in abit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I've always been a fan of running filters, but after doing my td04 conversion last week I can see why most people don't run filters as its a mega tight squeeze! Gonna mesh mine for a bit I think if my turbo shits itself its no issue ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Here is his filter set up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Where do you guys get the TD04 size 90* bends from ? Am having the same issue, got a HKS mushroom to squeeze in lol. Dont like the idea of mesh on a daily for the roads i use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

daniel_g Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Any chance of a link please mate ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Banbury Glanza Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Can't remember the size now bud. What size is it on the turbo ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I haven't even measued it lol, being lazy. I'll measure it tomorrow and have a hunt on ebay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Banbury Glanza Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Lol ok mate off the top of my head I think it's 57mm that I got and then just cut it down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Sound, i'll double check and get something ordered up. For now i just cut a circle out of an old HKS filter and strapped that around, it tries to get sucked into the turbo though lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
