Induction Kit, How To Fit?

[sid-uk]

just been and ordered a pipercross panel filter for my gt gen6, but i saw a really smart carbon induction kit aswell, how would i fit the induction kit as the air box has sensors on and the iduction kit doesnt, or would i be better off just using the filter? thanks

Unless you want to build a cold air box, it`s not worth putting an induction kit on, as you will be sucking in warm air from the engine bay - not good. Go for the panel filter.

cheers mate, will do that, would i see any difference in her with said filter?

Possibly better throttle response. The engine should breathe a little easier. Maybe a slight increase in induction noise. Not too sure on Piper products. Had a Pipercross cone on my M535i which seemed ok. The TRD panel filter is highly thought of.

you should see some acceleration improvement - have you got "her " on optimax .

if you do go induction kit , KN have made one specially for the gen 6 celicas , which has a hole and a place for those 2 rubber pipes to go too.

i left the resonator box intact and stuck the maf sensor into the big black throttle body hose , using a 10 mm drill bit made a hole for it.

closest garage to me only does super at 97 ron, does optimax make that much difference?

[GT4 BOOSTER]

super 97 and a bottle of octane booster , you will see a difference .try it, better still use it with optimax.i see a big drop in power in the gt4 using 95 ron , so stick with bp ultimate or optimax

[sotal]

The car is setup for 100RON, 97 RON will probably be as good as Optimax - Optimax is upto 98RON but can be less. You could get some Octane Booster and top it up with that to get the full performance

carbon one is ok but not really worth the extra cash, just use a normal induction filter

[Kevstir]

just do this

so the induction v's panel filter yet again rises up , seems everyone says different - must be a weather thing ????

[cookci]

general consensus is panel filter = more power than induction kit

mod the airbox = more power still

[GT4 BOOSTER]

mod ? as in drill more holes into the bottom of the air box. wont this act as heak soak ?? please forgive my ignorance i just worked a 72 nightshift week .

it would ordinarily. But if like Kevstir you put a direct cold air feed into it this will help.... A little.

[cookci]

kev copied me :P

yes it creates another cold air only feed. made my car a little quicker ;)

[cookci]

marc... look at the link kevstir gave

[GT4 BOOSTER]

so 2 cold air feeds - not a bad idea.

[Kevstir]

don't let cookci fool you guys, he did it first but i gave him the idea , and cause i had the idea first i did mine better :D :D :D :D :D

[cookci]

:arrgg-matey: why i oughta :arrgg-matey:

lol mine is EXACTLY the same

[sid-uk]

so will get better mpg with a new filter, getting less than 50 miles to a £10

[daktari]

Dont think a new air filter will compensate for a lead foot.

[cookci]

Not unless ur old paper filter is VERY dirty

TBH round town thats what i get about but on long motorway journeys my MPG doubles round abouts.

Initially when i got my car i was getting like about 50 miles for £10 on motorway too. turned out to be a faulty lambda sensor.
