tonino Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 hi all i'm going to drop my 1.9 scholar/DVA engine in my car, and i would like to know if the std BS airbox (caterham air filter) will be good for it. i bought the airbox last year, but i don't know if it's the later type or not. engine specs are : 1.9 bore 1444 cams dva VHPD head big(gest?) valves dth jenveys r500 injectors powerspeed exhaust (decat) cheers for now antonio Edited by - tonino on 1 Oct 2012 19:47:16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support Team Shaun_E Posted October 1, 2012 Support Team Share Posted October 1, 2012 The later 80mm inlet box is OK but the earlier 63mm(??) inlet is not. The later box also has more volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I ran an early box on my 247bhp k, it made more power with the box as a result of reflective pulse. I did however enlarge the inlet to 100mm and used a large k&n cone filter . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
