The cold air goes in the radiator, the hot air escapes from the top of the bonnet and then directly into the scoop and the TMIC!!! :eek: I didn't say which vents they should have. I'm sure the vents on the classics aren't counter productive. |
They would have to be located on each side (like the classics)
But side bonnet vents on the new-age would look a bit Max Power... |

that'l do nicely sir...:idea: No honestly the difference simply wasn't like you'd really notice it.. it maybe felt a little better than my PPP pulled to the redline better but even with a leap from mine into the 333 it didn't have that sheeeeeeeeeeeet this is quick feeling... I've been hoping to have a comparison ride in a 360bhp + weapon to see "if like i said" is worth the engine mods and $$$$ it needs... From investigations it looks like it would be possible to get some signifcant gains for £6k that turbo injectors IC and mapping.... A visit to scooby clinic for the fitting and Mr Bulmer or someone of his creed to set it up... :notworthy Dazza |

The question is ....... is that an actual working vent or is it just for show ?
I cannot remember if it is solid or not... has anyone else seen one in the flesh ? |

Prices are roughly what I paid..... APS FMIC DR500 £1150 Turbo £1400 Roated Up-Pipe / Downpipe Combo £475 Injectors £500 Dump Valve £200 Induction Hose / Cone / Filter £250 Full Exhaust System £500 Ancillary Water / Oil Pipes £200 Headers £600 Fuel rail - Parallel Mod £400 Walboro Intank Fuel Pump £115 External WG £250 3 Port Boost Solenoid £175 ECU £900 - £3000 depending on what you want and how far you want to go..... Remap £500-£800 (2 days to do it properly ;) ) Mandatory Boost gauge £200 Mandatory Knock Link £175(ish) Labour to fit £900 ( I paid double this but then they skanked me, No I wont reveal who, this is old ground and wont be covered again. I wouldnt use the turbo i had on my car, i now know of better VFM items that produce the goods but I'm not giving the game away ;) What you end up with is a ballastic STi 7 / 8 that'll wipe the floor with most production sport cars on a real world road (twisty) or a circuit. :D Dazza, Sold it m8 but watch this space... in Sunny Yorkshire :D www.theRa.... :D |
