ae111 cold air induction

[xRyanx]

Now i know this has been covered many, many, many times, so please dont flame.
However, im asking to see (post a pic) or hear what people have done WITHOUT moving the battery to the boot.
I'm thinking i get some tube and direct cold air up to the pod, which will be in a cold air box? would this work?

As far as i can see, the cold air would be forced up the pipe while traveling along, would go into the cold air box, and be sucked in by the pod?

Anyway, please either post or explain what your've done WITHOUT moving the battery to the boot. turning the battery sideways or something is an option tho.

We used a semi sealed pod to begin with that only sucks from the end and pointed it at the hole left after removing the factory airbox.



The blue is a hard area, it's a pod with an outer shell on it I guess. The best thing about it is that it rejects hot air from everywhere else and it has "pointability" saves $&#$% around with a cold airbox and seems to work alright.. don't notice too much difference after driving for a long time.

Anyway.. someone will tell me my ideas are shit but that's ok cos I'm tough.. not

Just remember that you wont get great airflow sticking it behind the battery though. Biff your battery in the boot and give yourself more room.

Jazza, read the first post before inserting your foot in your mouth.


If done correctly, you can get good airflow to the pod filter/airbox set up, as there is a good gap between the radiator and the headlights for piping/ducting. Especially if you move your battery sideways towards the fusebox, like I have done.

But you would know that if you actually owned a AE111 and had done it yourself, aye Jazza?

A mate of mine has managed to move his battery over a bit on the factory bracket and run piping into the guard.

gets reall good airflow.

You could just get one of these, save the hassle of building a box if you're not that way inclined.

I've also seen people rotate the battery 90d so they can get the filter right up behind the head light.

to move the battery do you just have to move the bracket? or shift the battery on the bracket?

Best place to get air from is just under the windscreen where the vents are (this is what i read anyway) basically I think its a low pressure area which = better throttle response or something

Its a high pressure area, more pressure = more flow. Its not quite as high a pressure as the front of the car but is less likely to suck up debris or water.

ill look into moving the battery 90degrees and see what i come up with. Cheers guys

[BZG_UNIT]

is there good airflow behind the head light? whats the best piping to use when extending it

[antonio]

move your battery to the side toward the engne ways, there will be a hole where the standard air box was, make the whole bigger and shove some induction pipe down there and it will come out the front of the bumper. But have your poddy still up top but direct the pipe towards the pod and wella fresh cold air ramed strait to your pod, done it to mine works well.
