9n3 induction kits?

Post by Crippin »

What induction kits are there around?
Jabbasport have advised me to get rid of the replacement filter and get a induction kit as the replacement filters can suck in on themselves.
Been looking around and still non the wiser except the k&n ones.

In all honesty i would stick to the stock box - just source yourself a PD160 intake and a good panel filter :?

The cone does some difference It breathes really better + a nice sound from DV!

I did have the PD160 with KN panel filter but it was a bit restrictive when I went Revo stage 2!

Purchased a well known filter Apexi one (Its kind of taste tbh Jetex would be my 2nd)
70 > 80 mm 90d bend to fit the filter and MAF and put it inside ½ original airbox plus a small breather filter from KN for the SAI pump.

Trimmed the front intake on the PD160 for more flow

Android Torque Application reading with bluetooth obd dongle
60 > 80mph
Panel = around 3 sec
Cone filter = 2.4-2.6 sec
If I remember right!

Google around a bit you will see quite many have done this kind setups. I spend hours finding which way to go which filter etc

If you wish I can upload a picture with my setup!

Here you go fella!
Filter Apexi with 80mm adapter.
KN Breather filter 1" but did have to modify the sai hose with 19 to 25mm adapter to fit it.
I added some tape around the 19mm end to convert it to 21 mm so it will fit better.
70 to 80mm 90 bend did have to cut it shorter from both sides
Some hose clamps.

Pictures might be large did all this from my phone

Does anyone know what's the maximum size filter you can use for a cone in the box? Looking at doing this myself
