HKS Superflow

[oRi]

Anyone have this fitted on there RX. Just fitted to mine today. This left me with two pipes: one coming off the air pump and one other. As they had been connected to the filter box i am assuming that they require filtered air. Have installed a couple of breather filters to compensate.

The car now sounds like it has a \'dump valve\' on it as every time i there is a release of pressure.

Just wanted to ask if anyone had the superflow and if so what they had done, not sure i have done enough.


Cheers

Do You Have any pic\'s of your install that might help.

If you have fitted a breather filter as you sugested, this will make allsorts of noises as the pump cuts in an out

The air pump feeds back into the back of the stock air box - not much u can do about that with the HKS intake...

The other one is the standard recirculating BOV - again, this vents into the airbox normally thus muffling the \'psshhht\' sound on lift off. With no airbox to muffle the sound, your FD now sounds like a chav\'d up Corsa - ace!

Ahhhh, I had the same problem with my ARC Induction box. That second pipe has something to do with the air pump....it vents as the air pump cuts in and out. My ARC box had the pump intake and vent bloked off and the air pump clutch was disconnected. I put a mini K&N on the airpump intake and drilled the air box so the return pipe could vent into it. Don\'t think you\'ll have any probs with your set-up except for the strange noises.....have you heard the air pump moo yet?

Yeah it kinda makes a blowing noises when you lift off the gas. Could you connect the pipe off the air pump back into the system before the HKS and eliminate the noises?

The pipe that actually goes to the pump is its intake. Providing the air going into it is filtered I think you can pretty much put it where you want. I\'d personally stick with the mini K&N. The wooshing sounds you\'re hearing are coming from the other pipe. If you can find a way to re-route that pipe into one of your HKS intakes rather than venting to atmoshphere then it should silence it a bit.
