woop

due to the smallness of my block, iv managed to get 3" pipe work allthe way around lol

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a191/baxters83/Picture091.jpg

edit, yes the air flow meter is there for a reason, as i cant put any boost into it a the moment, and i still need to use it, i left it where it was, so i can just stick a filer on the end of the cooler, lol

as my ecu can have 3 maps on at the same go, im thinking about getting a clutch thingy from a A/C pump now lol

[burgo]

im sure ive got a a/c pump in the shed for that very reason baxter. problem is the pulley is huge

[djbrowney]

is the pulley not interchangeable ???

[peester]

wow nick, good stuff..

[Adam]

IC looks to fit well, good work

Lol, how well does it drive with the engine sucking air through that ic/pipework???

[General Baxter]

Lol, how well does it drive with the engine sucking air through that ic/pipework???

cant tell, its slower at the moment, stupid charger sucking all the power lol

[Benn]

You can fit 3" pipe work on a big block...

Does the air flow go filer, ic, charger, engine? (what it looks like from the pics) If so when bother with the ic? As the charging will be making it hot as it enters the engine..

[General Baxter]

when its all conneted up

filer, AFM, charger, cooler, engine

where the air filter is sitting at the moment, that pipe will be connected to the other pipe coming around the back of the engine, and the filter and AFM will sit the other side of the charger

[Jay]

Im glad you updated. :)

[Benn]

Thats better, is it piped up like that in the pics?

[Adam]

No, hes just got the engine running NA, sucking through the pipes and IC

[draper]

No, hes just got the engine running NA, sucking through the pipes and IC

nearly as much pipework as a standard smallblock XE inlet then lol

[Adam]

Probably less actually lol

[General Baxter]

lol

[Spudly]

So your airfilter is going to live under the scuttle panel?
