...super short cai

[marcusus]

BTW, SP Motorsport uses a scoop from the mouth of the car, NOT the fog light holes. The indentation on the box is for the back of the foglight to fit in nicely.

Hmmm... you could be right. The picture just makes it look like it comes in through the fog light.

I wish they'd put a bit of a product description on their site though. Just having a picture of the CAI box isn't overly descriptive.

agreed..
i thought that it drew it in from the fog light too. some NB8As do have factory fog lights (look G'hey in my opinion but its a hole that could be used for the CAI.

i still think an SP kinda system on the cold side would be best... you'd prolly end up with a pipe length that was inbetween the shorty and a normal sp..

Here's more detailed view

[Bevan]

hey bevan that dyno day ages ago did you have a CAI on then? what power did you make? and what mods did you have?

I had an open pod without shielding going across the front of the engine. That plus a cat-back exhaust. I made 82.1rwkw. From memory, you were 1kw higher than I and you had the highest power nat asp 1.8 on the day.

in think i had extractors then also though.. i think..actually no maybe i didnt just a muffler that was 2.5"...no... i cant remember

oh yeah you ever coming to wakefield again or what? me and matt need some more people to play with in our class..

[Bevan]

You had short ram and full exhaust inc. extractors

Stopped doing Wakefield for now. Apart from being expensive, I'm saving the poor car a little bit. I'll be back down there though, when I earn a touch more.

Im just wondering, irwin83r has full exhaust inc extractor and similar CAI to Bevan...yet only makes 1KW more?

Bevan, do you have a full SP Motorsport exhaust?
I was assuming that full exhaust inc. extractor and CAI would prob get you closer to 90 RWKW...am I dreaming?

[sliq]

how about another group buy for this?

Mate, its over $700...I doubt we can reduce it by half

Mods were:

Me:
Pod filter
SP Motorsport Cat Back exhaust (Cat, midpipe, muffler)

Irwin:
Short ram CAI
Extractors (unknown brand)
Exhaust (unknown brand)

bevan also drives an NB8B with VT
mines an NB8A no VT

[Hellmun]

NB8B's have a higher compression ratio than an NB8A as well. I believe it's 9.5:1 Vs 10:1.

Here's another one from D-technique

[marcusus]

^^^
That's very similar to the autoexe one.

I wonder how efficient the panel filter is in comparison to the cone filter?

What's the cost of that D-Technique one?
