Here's Carl's intake:

Looking nice, looks like its going to be sitting behind the front bumper.

You may need an airfilter sock thingy!

 

[acidstrato]

the only thing is i dont think i can fit it while the stock IC is inplace, if i removed the bumper to see how much space there is then maybe but if i gotta take the bumper off again for the fmic then i might as well just wait to hear from forge

it does look decent for 48quid in total, and that was with 24hr courior

the filter doesnt smell oily but i suppose thats not the greatest way of testing, so think il give it a soak just to be safe, all jubilee clips supplied as well as the blue join and a piece of rubber hose which is supposed to be blue but he sent black which connects to the secondary inj pump but i have the breather from the dynatwist kit, if i sell the dynatwist then il just get a suitable breather as green doesnt really fit in anyway

im also contemplating chopping up the smic ducts to see if i can bodge something together, maybe then i could cover the underneath so no water flicks up at the filter

 

[PhilW]

Just buy a water jacket for the filter carl.

And dont worry about the breather filter. No real need to have one.

 

[davidol]

K+N do filter socks, apprantly only supposed to restrict power by up2 10% but in the wet weather we've got at the moment that might not be a bad thing

 

[rogers]

mmm i do like the look of that fair play, well had a letter off my boss today to help wid my court case which is good.

any luck wid a job dave?

 

[davidol]

as it happens yes got a interview with a company in chesterfield on tuesday, mobile instalation engineer in the cardiff area installing sat nav's, trackers etc, company van, phone and 22 k

or the other option is my old favourite, uplands :d popped over to see the area manager today and there may be something in the pipeline for me!

 

[rogers]

oo id go with the first one, have a change mate, up to u tho,
o im nervous now for tomz, infact im s#iting myself fingers crossed and my cars bk tomz

 

[davidol]

thanks mate, i'd love the first one too, its for a big national company too and it'd be fantastic to earn that sort of money, im a bit worried though as i can do 75% of what they require but ive got no qualifications on paper, fingers crossed they take into account m enthausism and my willingness to learn

 

[rogers]

they should do, well my car is cumin bk to me tomz which im happy about! will spend the rest o my day cleaning it polishing it and fitting all my new goodies

 

[rogers]

then drive my derv all the way to plymouth to pick up my mate that ul be fun lol

 

[PhilW]

Rogers, when you in court, i thought that was today?

 

[Forbez]

Good luck Dave!

 

[rogers]

well wel iv bin to court, 5 points and £200 fine so im still up for the meet and very much still on the road! whooooooooooohooooooooooo

 

[Forbez]

Nice one, lucky boy!

 

[davidol]

what speed were you caught at matt? guess it was close to a ton to pick up 5 points, small fine though in comparision to what some judges have given out recently, lucky guy!

cheers for that tom!

 

[acidstrato]

very lucky in my book!

whats the tally matt? just 5 or u have a few more prior to them, i was under the impression u had been caught twice within your first 2years of driving and that was why u were sweating

on a side note...will u guys stop buying all the coilpacks from ECP! grrrr

 

[rogers]

na i had a clean liecnece up until today, i got caught speed at 79mph in a 50, 30mph is a automatic ban, for say a month, but in my situation, between 24-30mph over the limit your looking at 6 points and because iv only bin less than two years would make me loose my licence, so being 29 over it was a almost certain to be band either way, but wid 5 points a good story and a fine im away!

 

[M90NDS]

[Forbez]
