MikeE Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Anyone have an air box which will fit a Duratec on throttle bodies with an piper cross filter and bonnet cut out (see pictures in link below) 🤔  R400 Duratec 230bhp Build and Modification Pictures here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMO Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 I bought an Arnie prototype airbox to try out. Sold it as I could not fit it with flared wings. I have since purchased an airbox from Bernard Scouse. It has 100 mm inlet and is designed for an Elise (the Caterham one only has a 75 mm inlet). It was my intention to fit it with a remote K&N filter. With the current direct to head throttle bodies it would require an odd shaped cutout in the bonnet. Would probably be OK in an SV. The alternative is to fit short bodies (don't like that idea) and keep the whole lot under the bonnet. Not a problem if you can duct some cold air to the filter.  For the short term I will run a Pipercross filter and concentrate on getting the car on the road. I'll worry about the airbox later. I may be tempted to sell the airbox I have if somebody wants it. You can see the airbox at www.auto-teknix.co.uk. AMMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeE Posted January 28, 2005 Author Share Posted January 28, 2005 Ammo, Danny and I are both after an external airbox system (we currently have external Pipercross filters but this means we consistently fail trackday driveby noise tests) similar to the DiTP system. cheers R400 Duratec 230bhp Build and Modification Pictures here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFA Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Mike - Speak to Steve Mell. He now owns the DiTP moulds.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeE Posted January 28, 2005 Author Share Posted January 28, 2005 Arnie, Thanks for the info.....but who is Steve Mell and would he be willing to make some more airboxs from this mould? cheers R400 Duratec 230bhp Build and Modification Pictures here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
