Apexi intake install

[Initial-D]

Just finished putting on my new Apexi intakes, the manual was in Japanese so just followed the drawings.

From what I understand and after looking around the net at other installs of the ame setup they don\'t really have a specific order for what goes into what intake do they?

Sure is a tight fit tho!!

I had to block off one of the intake connectors (red cap) as the HKS dump valve uses that pipe now - that\'s right I take it?

Need to make a heat shield up now, although how I\'ll get it in there is anyones guess!:rolleyes:

Your looking forward to showing the rest of us up tomorrow aren\'t you.

I\'ll just be glad I can show up really, as I\'ve been unable for various reasons to get to any shows this year!!:(

Can\'t wait for tomorrow!:cool

the top filter is at a different angle to mine. Does the bonnet shut ok?

I made a heatshield from aerotech sheet with aluminium glass cloth underneath. It helps a lot but it\'s still prone to heat soak after a long time stationary

a better pic.
The foam around the intake side of the radiator has been removed (where the arrow is) to let a little more cold air in.

It was the only way I could get it in there at that angle, I had to move the rubber cased connectors to get the bonnet to shut! The bend from the FMIC was the big problem - I was just concerned about what pipe went where really - but looking at a standard airbox they all go into one chamber, so it\'s mix and match to get it all in there!:D

Started her up and you can hear the sucking! oh er...! Although the dump valve isn\'t as loud as when I ran it without air filters!;)

Thanks for the pics though!
