Fitting Standard Airbox Back onto Car
#1
How do you do this?
I have a standard airbox with all the pipework to go onto my Rallye but I am unsure on how to fit it (it has a really small induction kit on it at the moment)
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

what are you unsure about on the std airbox or pipework?

the filter box bolts up into the chassis leg and two nuts on studs near the lower chassis loom plug points
air feed snorkal pushs onto the airbox and bolts to the slam panel
manifold feed push's on airbox other end pushes onto throttle butterfly inlet and the small bypass pipe pushes onto the ICV

Was unsure how it all went together until I checked servicebox, now I know how it all fits together, cheers! Is it easy to see where the bolts/nuts join up to?

You can get away with just affixing it using the studs on the side.

You will notice far better low down torque with the standard airbox....I have just seen a picture of what you are currently running!

Thanks very much lads!
Id hope it has better low down torque and a higher top end when replacing the current induction setup! As you said it should do though Smile
My first proper drive of it will be with the standard airbox though so I wont be able to properly compare
