Hey guy's i recently brought a 3A Racing pod filter off ebay as i wanted that nice pod air induction noise and well yeah tongue.gif I've got a few questions though before i go trying to tear apart my new ae82 and install it...

 

#1 What left over plugs, sensors and so forth will there be once i remove my air box and what should be done with these to ensure my car still runs smoothly ie drill a hole into my 3" pipe and plug them into that such as any sensors ? i really have no clue what needs to be done..

 

#2 after removing the box where should i run the pod too ? obviously the engine bay as it'd just be sucking in hot air.. so the next spot is up the front but exactly where ? where is the easiest place to run piping too and some where safe where the pod wont get extremely dirty or wet. I was thinking of just using PVC to begin with till i could afford some good piping to use. I also REALLY don't want to have to move anything thats already there.. so far the only thing I've thought of is exploiting the cold air intake hole that the air box currently uses and put my pod some where through there.. some pictures or drawings would really help me out here guys.

 

#3 where would i find the usual parts such as silicon bends / joins and etc required ? bunnings or mitre 10 ? or super cheap / auto barn ?

 

Thanks for the help guys really appreciated.. i just didn't wanna start ripping apart the engine bay with no clue on what to do post plenty of pictures of ae82 pod setups if you have any cheers !

1. Usually the airbox has an air temperature sensor, Depends on the motor where it is located..

 

2. If you want it to be easy, just leave it in its standard position otherwise its going to be a complete pain in the arse to fabricate all the piping. If you wish to locate it somewhere else, Best off getting someone to fabricate the metal pipe to bend around to wherever it needs to go.

 

could also try twincam.org or toymods.net to search for how they set up their pod filters..
