anyone know of any cars,jeeps,vans, that use a narrow long panel filter,, like maybe 125mm x 500mm?

 

I think the Rover 45/MG ZS KV6 engine uses a long narrow filter of about those dimensions.

diesel escorts think mk4 shape had somethin similar but not sure ???

 

be looking to get it moulded in carbon,, who is best for this?

 

im suprised someone of your skills hasnt given the carbon making a bash yourself?lots of videos and guides on how to do it yourself these days.
i know its sometimes easier just to pay someone to make it as you could make more money in the time it takes to make

 

Looking good mate

 

the people id use did your roof i beleave mate


you have some realy good ideas mate im begining to think your ome sort of mad scientist lol

 

wouldn't say they were the best at it

 

would you want carbon or carbon kevlar

there is a place near us that do lotts of race car bits but iv not had anything done and there a bit pricey

 

nice thin carbon,, whats the name miby worth a call?

 

nice idea

i take it with your new engine you'll be using a bigger intercooler .. ?

jim

 

ill find out and ring you with details but a mate went in the other day and they wanted 1600 to do an rs turbo bonet

 

whens the new engine going in then andy?

 

yip going in the side of the cooler with a divider in it so half the air will go to the top and half to the bottom then back out the other end so it should flow in and out better

 

once harvey gets the engine done!! he's prob away on holiday as he has just finished charlies engine,,,he likes a holiday after a big bhp engine build!!

 

One of two places IMO

Carbon Delight

or

Performance trim, whom did my roof and bonnet.

 

can k&n not make you a filter cheep enough

cant see it costing allot

 

isnt that a little excessive lol?

 

so is 750bhp but who cares,, if you can then why not

 

Still same size core ??????????

 

bigger than the one i have, maybe taller too, depend whats available

 

its unreal how much more you can get in that bay to say what you could in a saph

 

well, yeah, i guess your right lol.

jacko, it helps having the engine half in the car lol

the zetec in my 3dr is over 100mm shorter than a yb, so much so that i can stand in the gap between the rad and engine lol

 

Andy, Porsche Cayenne Turbos use the kind of filter your after. Not sure on the exact dimensions though.

Jasmine Porschalink sell them for Ł14 each I think (Genuine Porsche). They are really helpful too so would probably measure one up for you.

 

Good job with the ST filters. I was thinking perhaps some form of truck filter?

 

truck filters and most van ones are cylinder shape. doubt you would get a panel that size off the shelf.

 

I knew some were cylindircal, but wan't sure if they all were.

 

That looks mad.

 

You running mid-engined now then

 

yup



the water pipe was not there at the time tho lol, and wont be there when its all plumbed in either

 

looks very nice andrewcant wait too see it going now

 

Regarding the air filter ITG are worth a call.

we have to see a pic of you in that bay with the motor

atleast then the car would have one fudgey power

 

Out of interest andrew who did make your focus roof?

 

Andrew closest to your dimensions i could find were..............
porsche 944 517mm x 115mm
porsche 928 514mm x 157mm
porsche 944s 478mm x 144mm
audi 100 451mm x 135mm

i was bored today haha

 

They are ON DRUGS if they think they can charge that

 

they are good sizes ,, prob stick with the st ones thou, prob 3 of them will be cheaper than a performance porsche one!

 

x-sport

 

so which car is this as i get confused.

You had the carbon one and charlie had same non carbon.

Charlie has the carbon one now and you p/x his? So is it the no carbon one getting a new engine?

 

i still have the carbon one,, charlie still has the steel one,, we are both getting new engines
