Jetex Cone Filters :)

[David_smith_909]

am running a bsm carbon dynamics airbox it sounds da nuts

well done

 

[CupraStoo]

i oresume all this applies to the mk4 too?

i really want the darth vader thing!

 

[JIMYU]

What cai are people using for this? Ive got silver flexi hose but im pretty sure its attached to my airbox so wondering how it will attach with a cone there instead

If you look in the pic of mine you can just see my air ducting (from badger5) which used to be attached to my dynatwist. Its just resting there securely and it goes towards the rear of the wing, but I will move it to get more air flow to the filter soon.

mines now fitted and the dv sounds much nicer, although sat at 70ish though i can hear it hissing almost which i guess it should do as the boost isnt building its constantly releasing??

Anyway heres a pic of it fitted now

 

[Big_Lad]

You going to have a proper bracket made to hold the filter? Yes we can all see the temporary cable tie

The hissing will be the air being drawn through the filter.

Couldn't you put your MAF in the middle of the two silicon tubes? It might give it a bit more cushioning?

oh right ok, should there be a cable tie around the pipe that comes off the top of the dv?
its a golf mk4 tip, so didnt want any stalling issues like philw had

Just to stop it getting pulled off accidentally.

QQ on these filters guys, I'm fitting mine tonight with my TIP but notice the filter seems fairly well oiled. I assume it's still safe to whack it straight on or did anyone clean and dry theirs out first?

 

[M87NER]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Would like to know if these are oiled or not as i will purchase 1.

No 1 seems to have had problems tho after fitting them!

Cheers

Jetex filters are lightly oiled.

I haven't had a problem.

 

[__B3NNY__]

No problems here either, been on for about 1K now.


Maf readings are better than ever.

 

[Robbie C]

Cheers. All done now, what a bitch that TIP was... never again

Can't believe how loud my 007P is now, what a difference. Can't really say it feels any quicker tho, maybe just a bit lighter on the revs

 

[JIMYU]

The tips probably added a bit of low down torque mate


although I don't neccesarily think its related, I've had to change my maf within a month of fitting the jetex...

Here's a graph of __B3NNY__'s airflow g/s from your before and after logs....

 

[PhilW]

Nice graph dave, shows a nice increase.

 

[__B3NNY__]

Cheers for that, It visually shows the increase alot better than the logs.

Just ordered my kit with Jetex and Forge, thanks for the advise that I've been reading off this thread!

 

[TommyCupra]

this thread still going lol

Been using the filter for a while now and am loving it, no issues at all. Ordered a extra bit from forge and its looking sweet

 

[ginger_fool]

Thanks for the advice guys will be getting the credit card out to purchase some bits and bobs!
