Sorry for my arse handwriting, this sort of basic principal, also sorry for the pic being sideways, it was the right way up when I uploaded it! T_T

that\'s a good idea... will have to do some experimenting though, I suppose 2 weekends of bank holidays should be enough time... I\'ll get on it and see what I can do...

A couple of initial problems to start off with...

the fabrication work will need to be held in place somehow, will have to see if I can run any brackets off the bolts surrounding the UIM

the AFM will still need to be incorporated into the design, but, that I may be able to incorporate it into the base of the fabrication design... I\'ll make a few (bad) drawings

Can\'t be as bad as mine! :p lol

Also if you\'re looking for mounting, look at the setup of the T-II\'s at Brooks on sunday and see where everything on those are mounted to, since the fabrication of the bit that sits in the scoop will probably use very similar mountings as a TMIC, so standard TMIC modified ti fit over the EGI top header intake might work quite well!

Just looking under the bonnet now... It\'s possible, but the stock afm won\'t fit, will need a custom jobbie, it could be mounted on top of the UIM, but it will have to literally sit on it, and be half the height to fit under the stock bonnet scoop.

Mesh the detachable part of the scoop to stop large debris, source or find a smaller filter element to sit on top of the AFM, then run a flexible tube at a hairpin down to the UIM.

I\'m not sure how much that\'s going to restrict the air flow though.

A better intake would be to run an intake down inside the inner driver wing and pick up some air from the brake cooling ducts :)

True, but the thing I was thinking of is that since both Skiffy and myself have the T-II bonnet than the scoop would be awesome to make use of! Especially the ammount of air that thing would pull into the CAI system at normal driving speeds!

retro boy G had my old adaptor, he might still have it?

panel filters are pretty good though
