Hi Ho,
Found this bit of 4" ducting pipe (where i was working.....swipe lol). I thought it would be better than my 3" original intake. When i saw it at work i thought.....im havin that lol.....sooo i had to kinda took it off an air conditioning unit, he he it is a cool piece of pipe-thouht id share it with ya's

cheers.

what a mare to fit-had to move the battery abit to get it fit as its hard to squash.

nice! where does the other end go? the old bit looks fair battered.

Cheers, the old 1 is battered-over a year old and it got squashed quite a bit.

The other end goes here (other side of course) no where to fit near front is there.

i'd be wary of big puddles when having the intake low down there. i had a close call once when i had my bmc air feed down there and met a big puddle, promptly removed the air feed for safety!

Looks.....odd...lol, but will do the job! (My motto, or at least WAS haha)

How smooth is it on the inside?

 

[M87NER]

I thought about through puddles might be bit risky so i kinked the bottom so it faces more towards door, as for the smoothness its quite smooth-just the ribs of the coil goin through, sounds nicer then me original too..

Cool

Good job then

I managed to bend two conrods via a large puddle while the car was standard!! Just drive with care in the wet!

Doesnt matter which way its facing really as it will suck the water up so be careful. Looks good apart from that!

Ive compacted the pipe so it sits higher up in the bumper now just to be safer (as weather is been crap recently).

When you buy a forced induction like mine it comes with a pipe and that ring thing that goes to the front of your bumper-sure they would be worse aswell as you can be driving straight into rain????
