The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

Its a small filter that goes to the back of the inlet if you use a silicone 90 degree bend. The silicone bend does not have a extra pipe coming off it for the breather so you have to use a pipe off the back of the inlet with a small filter.

But as your using the original bend, it already has the pipe connected so no need for the breather/crankcase filter.

Ohh I think I know what you mean. The Mini cotton 'K&N' style filters you sometimes see?
I love the look of those but as you say the kit utilises the original pipe there's no need.
Thanks mate.

Hi, started fitting mine today but couldn't get the pipe out that leads from stock air-box down to below the headlight next to the NS wing. Been reading through this thread but still not sure. Any ideas?

You will need an 18mm filter.

Pulled the pipe hard a few times and got it out. Now fitted, loving the on demand noise!

Compared to a cheap Chinese cone filter I had, I found te Ramair pretty quite! A friend of mine also switched from a k&n cone filter to the ram air and found it much quieter. It's not just the "volume", the noise is different - With the louder filters you get a nice angry "roar", with the ramair you get a calm and smooth tone.
I was extremely curious once and drove without a filter for a minute lol - the noise is insane. Really amazing noise, not just a loud cheap noise. Feels like even with a cone filter you loss 80% of this noise. Don't do this of course, you can destroy your engine, and you will get more dirt into it than what you do in a year.
So I'm in the hunt for the loudest cone filter, can anyone share experience ?

Hows everyone set up there cold air feed with this set up?

 

[RichieJA]

I just kept the original air box feed but cut it a bit

Hi
I've just bought a 2002 Clio 172 and am trying to apply this setup.
The original pipe on ebay seems to be out of stock now (and has been for a couple of weeks now)

Can anyone propose a suitable alternative?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, i should have been clearer - its the aluminium PIPE i need, not the cone.

 

[RichieJA]

I think you can use any 90 70mm pipe or silicone hose

Grand. I'd fancied the alumium one, but i'm happy enough to order up a silicone one.

Cheers

Someone on here is selling a pipe in the sales section.

 

[imprezaworks]

No longer for sale iirc. cheap enough to buy online tbh

Can't seem to find the alloy pipe on eBay anymore, so after looking at silicone ones instead, 2 questions, will it sound as good still and will the linked ones below be long enough to fit properly behind the battery...

Thanks!



ASH 90 Degree Silicone / Silicon Hoses - Elbow Bend Rubber/Coolant/Radiator/Pipe

 

[K666price]

The same Ebay seller that is selling the silicone elbow sell the stainless steel ones, and id guess any say there wouldn't be any difference in sound too [emoji106]

 

[jakeg]

Cheers for that, order the stainless one below will update if it fits!

I ordered - and received - a red silicone one which arrived today. Fits ok into the Cone but theres no real way of ensuring it stays in there. I'd say it will flop out when fitted (Oerr Missus)
So i've ordered a stainless steel one from that item number of yours above.

Cheers!

 

[jakeg]

Does the jubilee clip not keep secured on? Might save you ordering another

 

[daemon]

No. The hose goes into the Cone, so if you tighten the clip, it just squeezes the silicon hose inside slightly.
If it fitted over the end of the cone then it would work, yes.

 

[fivepointnine]

so Its 70mm diameter we need, but what is the actual length we need? I already have a Samco intake pipe, I just need the alloy elbow to extend it now.

Whatevet happened to Fatty anyway?

 

[imprezaworks]

Was thinking that the other day

Not been on since October

 

[N4TH4N]

Wonder if he got back with his Mrs and decided to focus his energy on her.

 

[imprezaworks]

Maybe, hope he's ok. Came across as a really nice guy

Seems to be doing well in life from what I've seen of him! Engaged now.

 

[Crybert]

He's giving his missus the fatty treatment

Good news.

[BoatNonce]

I didn't know the name of the first one so can't tell. Think so though.

 

[Crybert]

Have to say lads. I love this IK. Much more appealing to me than a loud exhaust. You don't get any drone unless you're basically full throttle. It's a great wee mod

 

[imprezaworks]

Yup.

 

[Stay Puft]

Is it best to use an alloy bend or could you use a Samco hose etc?

 

[Crybert]

Don't see why not mate, just make sure it sits toward the battery

 

[jakeg]

The alloy send I linked on last page fits perfectly. Anyone else have trouble removing the hose to the acoustic valve. Was stuck on pretty tight so have left it in for now

 

[BoatNonce]

Induction noise > exhaust noise. You can choose when to make it, it's only loud when you're pressing on and it sounds so much better.
