RE: Air filter with FMIC - zx_volcane - 13-06-2013
2 meters of flexi pipe should do the trick, behind the engine and over the gearbox

RE: Air filter with FMIC - Frosty - 13-06-2013
Ok cheers so do you think have a 90deg bend off the turbo and the onto the flexi pipe?
Also would i want 1 or 2 ply?
RE: Air filter with FMIC - silverzx - 15-06-2013
I still need to get some of this...!

TD04 inlet size anyone?
RE: Air filter with FMIC - ginge191 - 15-06-2013
I had a nice setup before on my old DT before I defiltered it. Had a U bend from the turbo, with a 90* bend to bring the filter to the front of the car
I'll try find some pics of you want?

Yeah pics would be ideal if you can find some cheers
RE: Air filter with FMIC - zx_volcane - 15-06-2013
You don't need any bends as this stuff if flexible
Straight off the turbo and then wherever you want

Still have the standard tmic pipe on mine, works fine but occasionally it causes a bit of vibration through the pedals

Clearly not. Asking for trouble not running a fan on a boosted xud

Not necessarily, depends what turbo, what fuelling, how it's driven.. I run manual fans and don't need them unless sat in traffic on a hot day. When you're doing over 30mph you don't need the fans anyway.
RE: Air filter with FMIC - Jimbo - 23-06-2013
But theres always gonna be a time your sat in traffic. For the effort of fitting the fmic just wack a fan and switch in

21 psi on a T2, previously 28 psi on a k14, the car doesn't get hot, no matter how much death it's given, gets to 80 and that's it, so I don't really see the need for the fan?
RE: Air filter with FMIC - Frosty - 07-07-2013
I got the intercooler pipes all fitted today and i dont know where to have an air filter and how to run the pipes. Anyone got any ideas?

RE: Air filter with FMIC - Tom - 07-07-2013
^^^ love that! Looks like such a clean set up!
RE: Air filter with FMIC - Dum-Dum - 07-07-2013
That is an awesome looking set up but the top pipe is gonna hit the bonnet.
Id run a pipe above the right hand boost pipe and then out to the air filrer or even have it behind the battery with some ducting.

Yeah i think your right. I have cut a bit off the pump to get the pipe down a bit but i will have to have a think and sort something out.
Have to have more of a think/look about the air filter but i was thinking about trying to get it run down the right hand side

Have you thought about trying the tmic pipe? It's said to be restrictive but it's got to be better than hot and non filtered air surely?
RE: Air filter with FMIC - Frosty - 09-07-2013
I have fort about it but i havent tried it and i think the intercooler pipes might be in the way. I will see how i get on before i try it
RE: Air filter with FMIC - Frosty - 12-07-2013
I have decided to make the air filter pipe work out of the air ducting. Will be similar to what ricky had on his d turbo. I am now stuck on what air filter to use. I dont have a massive amout of room but now the size of the air filter make much difference?
RE: Air filter with FMIC - zx_volcane - 12-07-2013
You still debating this lol?
Get it on
You'll want as big an air filter as you can fit

RE: Air filter with FMIC - Frosty - 14-07-2013

And as for an air filter think i might just go for a cone filter like this and see how it fits
