Just felt like fabricating something this weekend. So i set myself up to fold and rivet this little beasty. Like all projects (hind-sight prevails) i would change the design slightly but it will still work ok.
I got the idea from a CAI you can get from EVIL BAY It was photographed with an extra part to channel the air towards the in take a little more. But it required some cutting of the grill No way i was cutting the grill. So it lead to this ......

Not bad, not bad at all. might just be me but have you got the stock intake. Should get yourself one or the BA-F XR turbo ones.

what material did you use?

thanks for the comments.

It's funny you should say that, i was talking bout this differences in ford intakes on another thread. And yes i will get one. I have had a real good look at mine and find it hard to understand where they would be BIGGER! I assume the mouth of it is, but it cant be much larger due to the scolloping in the bonnet not alowing a larger mouth.

But I would like to get the measurements of one to compaire

1.6mm sheet.

I started with a weet-bix box cut up and sticky taped together for a template.
Then drew it onto the shhet, tin snipped it up, folded, 2 pop rivets, a light sand, under coat, than 2 coat of satin black.

I spos it works, you really never can tell with such small mods. But it all helps
