Induction kits
-
Good choices, I like the MR2 one.
But I bet thay are an arse to fit.
Anyone seen a fitting guide with pics anywhere?
-
for what? :?
-
For either of those bonnet vents.
-
its a simple case of cutting out the section and fiberglassing it in!
-
ive been brain storming….. ok here goes, create a simple scoop like effect and place at the bottom of your front bumper just under your reg plate, at one end of this attach a pipe fitting and place a feeder hose up from your said scoop thing toward your induction kit, instant fresh air feeder..... but will rely most on the outside weather temp been cool, altho at higher speeds the air is more cooler and denser, altho this cause a drag system as well.....
hmmm more thinking being done, but the theory is there.........
-
think it may have to be the evo one. as i am not sure excatly how much room is required for the depth of the vent on the mr2 style. or how much room there is under our normal bonnets
any one have a measurment or the space under it.?

lequetis… u could get flexy alumium hose. and remove a fog light and lead it up to the air box.
if your car has ac you could remove it!
you would lighten the car.
allow more air circulation
let air flow more freely into the bay.
and its ben known to give a small gain!
-
thought of that my self but then thought it may be too far gone as converting fogs to indicators soon
however think that either the mr2 vent or the evo vent would give this style of bonnet (i hope, know not carbon but hey)

thats a good idea, to remove a fog light and have it as an opening to the air to go through!
-
it would be ok but then you have to think as vent being used would be facing direction of travel (and we are in uk.) how much bloody rain is going to be sucked up at speeds. also know its low as standard. im not sure what the puddles are like around you but by hell i would be sucking them up.
-
True i supose.well was gud idea tho! Dont fancy cutting hole in my wing, but want sumwhere that will get the most air!
-
not a chance of rain getting up there! are ya mad! ur want to have the suction of a jet engine to get rain into your engine from that! and in that case id be more worried about small children and animals getting sucked up!
only think i would do is mesh it out to stop crap blocking it like leafs and that!
dont forget ur standard setup already dose this to a degree with the hose in the left wing pannel by the wheel! where the puddle splashes are!anyway u can get a sort of forced induction kit! you get a cone filter and the piping you need the cone filter has a screw hole in it and you hook up the piping and screw up the hose to the filter and it has a surround which fits over about half the cone filter!

sounds interesting.
here is a guide on how to raise your bonnet from the rear and allow hot air to escape!
