[Mk2] [Turbo] What do you think to my induction box ?

[spwd]

I've made this around a supra panel filter - the box is made from aluminium based on the arc box - what do you guys think ?



and fitted ....

cheers

steve

[steve b]

looks good

[djlee_dj]

is the element coverd

very nice. any blueprints/measurements

[craig]

Nice work mate, looks good

[2Crooky]

is the element coverd?

If it is like the ARC air box then no.

Very nice work buddy

[TBDevelopments]

looks good buddy, and i'm prietty sure you could even get an Apexi or K&N panel filter to replace the paper one. Best of both worlds then. And because you cleverly designed it from another cars panel filter they shouldn't be to hard to obtain.

Well done i say =D> fabication looks good as well.

Good job dude!

- what do you guys think ?cheers

So good to see someone making there own stuff (and making an excellant job of it) instead of just buying over priced parts. I recon if you were to make a few you'd make a bit of money there, well done

[MR2DIE4]

looks very good!
how much did it cost you to make it?

you should make more of them and sell them

[redeye32uk]

Great minds ect

[spwd]

Thanks for the feedback guys - no idea what its cost me as yet - waiting for my boss to come up with a price as i made it at work - see what he says, if its reasonable, i may be able to make a few more.
I started with the idea of boxing in my cone filter,but having seen the arc on here a few times and also what people had said about them i thought that seemed a better design.The reason i made it around the supra filter,was that obviously the shape and size of it and there seems to be more available on the market,so shouldnt have a problem finding a replacement when needed.

you're correct,its open like the arc is.

cheers steve.

[lukem]

yes, looks good & i'm sure it will perform. please let us know if you decide to make a number. i'm sure there's plenty of people who want something like this rather than exposed cone filters.

Cheers

Looks great
Thinking of buying the ARC myself... I'm not so handy

Steve What Velocity stack did you use ???

Hi mate,the velocity stack is actually a cold air intake bought from a well known mail order company.
I might have to source a different intake because it was sh!te to weld,some type of cheap crap alloy!


Due to the amount of interest i might be persuaded to make a few,all depends on what kind of price i can make them for and how much my boss will let me have them for.


mods

If i was to sell a few of these would i have to pay advertising fees? Could you pm me the details

Cheers steve

[Leakie Tbar]

I think it would be a good idea to get your car on a rolling road and do a check with a say apexi filter then again with the (steve special box)

Just before you start selling them if you do so you have some proven figures.

Very well done with the Fabrication steve, I may be intrested depending on price. For a discounted price I will do the rolling road testing for you at our local North east power run day on my car

Kev

[Slarty]

Top work there that man, well done to you

I'd certainly be interested in one, price dependant

[steve]

looks good mate

the only thing that looks different from the Arc is the lack of the hole for the intake sensor - that wont be difficult to do though
