K&N induction fitting, very quick question...

[riot68]

Just took the rest of my airbox out and refitted the k&n filter, there was a hanging sensor, on top of the filter tube in the pic, there's a small hole on the back of the actual cone, does this sensor just push in there?



Cheers...

[madbasshunter]

Yes it does , its a temp sensor

[riot68]

Thought it was and thought it did. Just wanted to make sure, thanks for clarifying...

[RikH77]

yeah mine was hanging about like that before i fitted a JSP - didnt seem to have any adverse effect it not being plumbed in though

[riot68]

Yup, don't know if this was hanging or plugged in before I started mucking about. Still, in place now...

[RikH77]

i cant for the life of me work out where the vac hose on top of throttle body is meant to connect to

fitted induction to a friends rev3 uk - but cant find connection his went to hmmmm

[riot68]

Which bit do you mean? Is it the pipe in my picture?...

[RikH77]

yep on top of TB - small vac hose

[riot68]

Goes to the cylinder type thing, sorry to sound thick as I have no idea what it is good luck. I have some nice red vac hose to change stuff over when i've cleaned up,but have now opted for a blue colour scheme DOH!...

How did you find the induction kit in the end? I had a K&N fitted to mine for a brief while. I thought it sounded awful tbh, there was a really annoying hissing sound every time you accellerated. Fuel consumption was affected a bit too...

[madbasshunter]

I had a K&N on a custom pipe which moved the filter out to the vent fitted to my red rev1 for years, I liked the sound and the car made good power and torque with good fuel consumption.

[riot68]

I like mine, I like the hiss sound, just sounds like air getting sucked in to me, as for fuel consumption, have no idea, never measure it, didn't buy the 2 for economy either ...

Good idea on a custom pip too, to lower it down a little, might look in to that...

[madbasshunter]

Its the top one in the pic I will find a pic of it in situ

[riot68]

Where did you get it from?...

[Rube79]

Hi, my k&n was on when i got the the car but the small tubing shown in the pic is not connected. That tube seems to go to a black cylinder attached to the side of the bay.
Weirdly this pipe from the cylinder on mine is plumbed in somewhere down low and i can't trace where it finishes.

All i wonder is what to do about the uncovered connector on the intake... Any ideas or just leave it? Cheers

nice madbasshunter where did you get that intake i have bin looking all over the net
