RE: 10v air filter upgrades?
I have made a new intake for my type 44 I removed the container for the
hedlight washer, it was cracked anyway. Made a nicely curved adapter from
the CIS to the K&N cone air filter that points downward along the inner
fender, almost to the bottom of the front spoiler, I also had to relocate
the oil cooler a bit forward. I am quite sure that the modification gave me
some more power over the stock setup with a K&N filter installed. The boost
pressure raised from 0.65 bar to 0.75 bar without any other modification!
But if you are planning on making one go to a junkyard and get the top of
the airbox for a VW Golf. Thatone is easy to modify, unfortunally I saw this
after I finished my own... Could have saved me a lot of hours!
I will post some pictures of this setup on my site as soon as possible,
tonight maybe?
