Lawsy,

I removed the entire airbox, not just the cf secton revealing the filter.
cleaning all the internals of the airbox and deep clean of the inlet ports.
20 minutes is mighty impressive!!

Second time you take the air box off it's much faster - just don't knock off one of the splitters with you shoe, like I did.

Forgot to say - my problem first time round was getting the bottom air intake to mate properly - fixed with some gaffer tape to hold the top part of the tube to the air intake whilst negotiating the bottom half on (seems easier to do it this way.)


I didn't check this for alignment!! bollox...guess what i'm doing sunday!!

ITG filter seems to make more noise.....may just be placebo but 100 cell cats are a huge improvement on the sound!!

My bottom intake tube refused to 'stick' with any gutso to the underside of the intake. As soon as I had mated the intake to the main engine, the bottom pipe moved...

You need fingers like ET to get down there (from the top anyhow).

Access to the other end of the bottom tube is possible from the top, by the viscous fan area - more room to wiggle the tube into its other fitting (not roomy by any stretch tho')

The gaffer tape allowed the top part of the tube to stay in position - it's still there - my first Mod!

Arh help please. I'm in the middle of putting the airbox input pipes on. But I'm struggling to find where the secondary pipe gos. Ie the one that comes from the base of the airbox to behind the headlight. I've got the headlight out now.

I ended up realigning the bumper inlet pipe to get the snorkel to fit correctly .

This is after filter swap and clean

Anyone !?!!
