nikhilkamdar12 Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Hi, Anyone know where I can get the in line air filters needed for boost controllers or map sensors, or if anyone has one lying around that I can buy off? Regards Nikhil Quote
Stu Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Why would you need to run one? Main air filter should pick up any impurities Why would you need to run one? Main air filter should pick up any impurities Quote
nikhilkamdar12 Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Why would you need to run one? Main air filter should pick up any impuritiesWhy would you need to run one? Main air filter should pick up any impuritiesBacause inside of these kinds of sensors there extremely sensitive and any kind of impurity coming though the vacuum pipe from the inlet could damage the diaphragm or give a false reading so I just want to do a proper job so no problems arise for me R-SpecCheers mate, I'll check them out Quote
Ollieh17 Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Agreed i'd always run one, don't see the point in not running one. Always the chance for a bit of oil etc to get through after the filter Quote
Stu Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Why dont they run them from the factory then?Sorry not trying to be a dick but you really dont want to run anything between the map sensor and the inlet. Any slight restriction can effect the map readings. Edited January 18, 2015 by Stu Quote
Ollieh17 Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 They do..... Or there is on mine anyway Quote
Gainzy Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) They sell them on ebay around a fiver as above worth investing.Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=281560846726&alt=web Edited January 18, 2015 by Gainzy Quote
AdamB Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 They come with aftermarket boost controllers, so they are there for a reason. Quote
Stu Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Post up a photo of one in a stock fitment please Quote
_shaun_ Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Aye the ep82 had them on the intake manifold I can't remember seeing any on my ep91 tho Quote
Ollieh17 Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 My ep91 had one just before the map sensor Quote
Stu Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Sure your not confusing it with the pulsation dampner? Quote
