green panel filter and pd 160 intake

[kopec56]

Hi I've got an 06 plate ibiza FR tdi. I've read about swapping the air inlet tube and fitting a panel filter. Is this easy and worthwile? An does anyone know where you can get front top strut brace or does the cupra one fit?? Ta

if u read the blog ppl have posted how to fit it they couldnt make any easyer

I am going to the do the "flap mode". But with the intake part which screws onto the front bulk head, The air seems to be restrictive. Can you just take that part off and cable tie it onto the bulk head, that way the intake gets better air to it?.

Did any one get the chance to check the actual increase of power after Pd160 Intake + Green Panel?

 

[Copey]

i just leave the pipe hanging on mine, dont have it attatched to the front of the car, as for power gains im not to sure, shud net a few bhp.

alrite mate where did u get ur intake manifold from? and how much?

 

[dannyshep]

does anyone have the current prices for the PD160 adaptor and pipe?
got someone on ebay selling them at 80 quid seems expensive.

 

[sssstew]

see my thread in ted johnsons dealers parts forum, they are about 76 quid new, so 80 second hand on ebay is too much.

i'm presuming the same intake mod still applies for the pd100 as opposed to the pd130? would like to do this to mine.

 

[pawel]

I would say that it fits each TDI in 6L ibiza

 

[sssstew]

yes correct, still applies.

Stupid question but the cris cross bits your talking about are they the ones on the maf body ? Cheers

 

[sssstew]

you mean the security torx bits?

 

[dean r]

Not a clue mate but this may help I took the air box apart and took the body of the m.a.f off and where the sensor is there is like a plastic plate with squers pressed frew it which is in frount of the sensor like its protecting it which looks like would restrict air flow I have removed the dust flap on the front and the round spigot in the top of the box just can't find the criss cross bits to remove any help

 

[sssstew]

I think you mean the mesh in front of the MAF, called de screening the MAF, many people have discussed this before on here, have a search through, some people have removed, others say its to help smooth the airflow. The difference is negligable anyway.

awesome! will definitely be looking at doing this in the next few months!!

 

[Wooders91]

is there anywhere you can get the pd160 intake pipes other than seat direct..? 85 quid or however much they are is a bit ridiculous for a 10 inch long plastic tube. a guy i spoke to said they used to be about 25 quid before they clicked on other people wanted them.

Did this, but with Pipercross instead of Green. And absolutely felt a difference....
