My modified airbox!... (56k warning!) NOW with log results!...

80mm MAF with a narrower snorkel makes no sense to me. I'm all over this after reading this with a minimum of 80mm feed!

I use a 104mm feed!

Has anyone got a close up picture of the battery relocation brackets and measurements so I can have a go at making some. I guess there no longer available to buy?

Look at my first picture in post number 1!!!! This should also help you along with DK's pics!

I lost a fair bit of skin when I done this mod lol. Took be bloody ages to break off all those wee ribs then smooth it out.

Haha, I remember doing that part of the mod whilst being hung over one sunday, took me bloody ages to smooth the top half of the box! lol

I've got one of those liquid gauges fitted in my car but I've. It really had a chance to use it or know how to lol. How do you do the g/s logs and what actually is this???

 

[J@mes]

I have no idea mate, don't have one! I used vag com, logged block number 002 for airflow! do a search on here for how to use your liquid gauge properly!

It's kinda the same I think as its plugged into the same port. I have a thing where I choose mass air flow and it reads the reading as I accelerate. I just don't know what the readings suppose to say lol. I done it today for the first time and it reached a maximum of 199 g/s. That was in 6th gear from 60mph onwards. Is that how you do the test?

No you do a 4th gear run from low revs till you are brave enough

On the LG the top bar go across then down to maf iirc i do it far to often naturally i don't even look at it anymore to do it.

I'll give it a go tomorrow on my way to the garage. Done it in 6th to very silly speeds so 4th should be a lot better lol.

What's a good reading for a mapped car with a panel filter and standardish air box???
