Building my own version of this now.. There's no need to pay that amount :p
 
besides behind the rear light clusters, the front left wheel arch must be the dirtiest area on a 133. Not the best place for a filter to live imo. Get a cheap rubber car mat or something and fit this over the louvre slots in the wheel arch as they were for the intercooler on the GT .
 
Ive been playing with the Scangauge this week and seeing what the OBD reports the air intake temp as.

Wondering what sort of figures these "cold" air intakes get.

Mine is the standard airbox with a BMC panel and in ambient temps of around 18degC I'm getting 38degC intake temp on a clear road. This rises quite rapidly when in stationary traffic.
Up to about 50+degC when engine is off and the car is in the garage.

Be interesting to see how much you can cool the air down, suppose it depends where the sensor is, as the radiated heat from the hot engine is the enemy.
 
I'm sure it doesn't just matter how cold it is too though but how the air is taken in too rammed air isn't alway best Like behind light is normally more stagnant air an is sometimes better to use I'm sure I've read that somewhere but I maybe wrong or getting confused
 
Sorry it obviously does matter on temp but also on other factors also I ment

Have a look at the front of the intake manifold, where a sensor is pushed into one of the inlet runners... That will be the intake temp sensor.

Editted for accuracy :oops:

Theres a MAP sensor and temp sensor on the inlet manifold. Guessing the manifold pressure would be on the end of the common plenum chamber, so as to sence static pressure rather than air in motion through an individual inlet runner which would have different pressure dependent on the airflow speed and possibly not representative of the other three inlets...

So, likely the one on the front is the temp sensor. Still gona be rather hot :cry:
 
On this intake from the throttle body does it have 45 degree angle followed by 45 degree angle followed by 90 or is it 3 lots of 45 degree angles?

the small grey one is temp sensor fort sur ( just put the number on google you found it)

also by the way the 2 sensore are built you can determine theire purpose (for pressure need a hole) (ok I already brake the pressur temp by mistake xD)


funy in R2 EVo the temp sensor is on the air box ! could be use as easy trick to fools manually the ecu
