Don't use tin snips or any other types of snipping, makes it hard to replace things. All you need to do is take off the square bracket at the back. Follow the hose up about 10 inches and undo the screw holding the hose on, this will then allow you to pull the hose into your box, use a clamp to clamp it to the filter and put the lid back on your box. Carry the spare parts in the boot, then if you have an accident or sell your car reverse the procedure and keep your bits.

Yeah. Very slight difference. I've noticed a nicer difference with my new 2.5inch sports exhaust though.

Pod wont fit in a ea-ed box but a ef-el box fits bought mine from wrecker for $40.

Unless you have a BBM conversion you will need to do sum minor playin around with hoses and box setup to be able to hook up your ef-el box because of throttle body position.

Have just fitted 1 on my ea (no BBM conversion) just havin a little trouble fitting snorkel(got AU3 XR8 Snorkel) but not a major issue just need to find a different shaped radiator hose to fit snorkel.

This my install of my DRIFT pod i god from autobarn.

1) I had the pod just outside in the engine bay at first and the heat does get to it causing sluggish throttle response after car has reached operating temp.

2) Had in totally enclosed in the airbox but it felt like it was getting starved of air at 3500rpm and above.

3) Used a holesaw kit and hacksaw and modified the lid a little. Works really well and looks awesome.


Cheers..................


good idea mate, looks awesome

Ideas would be greatly appreatited

Insteads of using the stock EF box piping, just remove that and use some 3" tubing from Supercheap, that way you don't have to cut up anything.

its possible, but many people will argue with possible and thats what is great... some person with the physics knowledge will know this. also this boxing pod filter is a mad idea.

Taking off the sno'0'rkel would probably me pointless, even if you ran a pipe to the 'bumkper' as well. (Try a spell check before you post next time mate.)

i have a replacement flat panel K&N filter with a snorkel and pipe running down to the front bar(fog light holes) and tried a pod before too, found better results with the flat panel, but i didn't box the pod to be fair.
