HOW FRICKING COOL!!!! apexi induction!! PICS UPDATE!!

Post by jimGTS »

just spent 4 hours fitting this mamoth! (first time fitting an induction kit on any car). took bloody an hour and half just fitting the tubing/ducts that ive fed directly from the side air intakes right to the filter!!

CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW GOOD IT SOUNDS!!
(ive a rev2 tubby).

didnt even know what to expect with the intake kit, the hissing now from the new filter is 10times as loud as the OEM filter, and i swear this kit is a 2 in one piece of kit, as i swear its a dump valve as well!! lol!!
get a great dump sound at the end of lifting off the accelerator!

so awsome!!!

pics to follow!

thanks to xxxx for the kit, and a big thanks to Dave Martin from this website below, he's done an EXCELLENT write up of how to install a apexi induction kit on a rev2 tubby! (lucky me)!
