Air Intake

dustyjustin · 31-03-2008, 09:47 AM

Is there any set parameters that the air intake flap should open. EG every gear after 6000 rpm or only from 3 rd gear onwards. I think i am having problems with mine but could do with knowing how others work.

Ok this is how to check

OPEN the bonnet you will need some 1 to help
start the car put it in sport then blip the revs up past 4000rpm
the flap should open up

Hey guys,

Do you guys know of any CSL that is salvage? I want to buy another intake to put on my non CSL. I can have the programming changed so it would work.

Trey these as they always seem to have number of performance cars breaking.
