  • Catch can - Cold air intake

    So I've re-located my catch can from the right headlight too the left and there's a picture off how much crap it has taken in 200 miles bit of a shocker. THP engines you need one of these!!!

    Also with how hot the engine gets i thought i'd fit a cold air intake see how that goes anyone else fitted one ???

      Really easy look under your left headlight there is a hole you can put the intake pipe through there it will take it underneath you car i just put it in between my splitter

        You can also get a feed by removing a spotlight and putting a vent in, then ducting up
        Problem is, its never that cold. More like ambient air temp in the summer
        In the winter obvs a lot better, but still just the temp it is outside

            Is that the short piece of air duct that comes back onto the rear of the radiator?
            Pretty useless TBH
