#3: Re: cold air feed pipe Author: dan_manu, Location: Flintshire, North WalesPosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 3:37 pm ---- yeah its cheap but they all do the same job , so dont realy want to spend loads
would it be long enough to go from cone to bumper yeah? and you can connect them to the cone yeah?
#4: Re: cold air feed pipe Author: jk206, Location: GainsboroughPosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 3:52 pm ---- should be long enough but then again i dont know where abouts your curent filter is in the bay, i dont think you connect them to the cone i recon the end of the cold feed is postioned next to the cone

Thats what it was, if you work out the diameter you need to can get it cheaper nowadays on ebay, in decent lengths too.

im not sure about this guys idea but as far as the part youve asked about id say its certainly worth a try at that price...im not keen on the blue pipe but the blue ends look ok...it will extend to three feet long so should fit ok...
Send a pic if u go for it...

#8: Re: cold air feed pipe Author: Domo, Location: EdinburghPosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 6:15 pm ---- how do you fit a cold air feed? and where does it go?
#9: Re: cold air feed pipe Author: dan_manu, Location: Flintshire, North WalesPosted: Sun Jan 06, 2013 6:26 pm ---- if uv got a cone filter , you jus channel a pipe from
a cold air supply normaly faceing forward behind the grill of your front bumper and put the other end of the pipe facing into your filter so that it sucks the cold air in, its a lot better for your car and might get u 1 or 2 bhp lol but its also healthier

Healthier? Very debatable. If it was better for your car, the manufacturers would use it from factory.

Not necessarily ...a k&n filter is certainly better than a standard one but they dont fit them...that goes for all performance products and upgrades i dare say...

True, I give you that, but I wasn't talking about a panel filter, nor would I call that a performance upgrade. The guy was talking about a cone filter and a cold air feed, something entirely different.
