   hi guys
   
   just a quick one . i fitted a induction kit yesterday . a green cotton filter with the chrome pipe connecting to the throttle body . i then picked up a 10 quid vent filter for the that goes on the outher pipe . i have conected it up on on the end that connected to the old filter , is that right ? also the exhaust sounds like it is a bit louder is this normal ? ive attached a fb picture because i dont know how to attach pictures . if someone can tell me if my set up is right that would be rad .

   could do with a cold air feed as with it as it is you will just be getting loads of heat soak

   Cant really tell from the pic as im on my phone, but the breather filter (red one) should come off the rocker cover.

   tbh looks better than most setup ive seen want cause anything bad to happen execpt use more fuel. the loudness of the exhaust is the sound of the intake not being silenced not the actull sound of the exhaust

   Heat soak isn't going to damage the engine, it will just be slightly down on power. Again I cant really tell, but it looks as if you have at mounted to the pipe coming from the inlet mani? There is a pipe with a lip on it coming out of the rocker cover, it should be plumbed into that

    yea ok , so a cold air feed would get that sorted ? and yea the pipe that connect to the old airfilter i just cut it off and connected it to the clip thing that pushes into the rocker cover . do i just need the filter on rocker cover ?
