Cold induction for a DC2....$200 or less?

Mike1234 · 2nd July 2008, 06:22 PM

Looking at my options for a cold induction setup for my dc2, and im wondering if everything is a much of a muchness at around the $200 mark?

What are my options?

Looked at those simota ones that FBI are selling, look alright, and id just have to duct some air from the bumper.

Looking at around $200 or under.

I just took the my old j's racing "style" bumper duct out and replaced with a genuine carbon one.

Will put it up for sale once i sand all the stone chips out of it.

All you would need to do is buy some ducting and run it up to your filter. Maybe box the filter?

*EDIT* Just seen that you have a pre facelift model... doh... duct won't fit.

So pretty much, im better off tigging up an alloy box to go around my filter? and running ducting from the bumper directly to the box?

best bet is a k&n panel filter, and to cut open the bottom of the stock box a little more to run ducting from the front bumper into the box. keep it all relativly airtight and itll work fine im sure, cheap and effective

CAI's can be had for less than 200 but some argue there not as responsive.

Problem is that my airbox has been taken out and replaced with a pod filter before i bought it. so ill just have to figure something out

Go to kw, they have a two peice cai that should fit your car which they sell for a good price. and get a good quality pod filter like K&N

It should be under 200bucks and you can hace CAI in summer and WIA in winter to prevent hydrolock
