Rear muffler once the damping material breaks away, usually fiber glass, the sound also different already, but I saw last time have one unit that can open up (using screw to secure) and replace the fiber glass......

i got that pic from internet. Well, im sure it's somebody's car Yeah, there's a heatshield there...but was wondering whether it'll be better to extend the air filter to the front of the battery...

Not sure what you mean the front of the battery? Isn't the battery already behind? Anyway, the pics shows a direct piping, if extend to the side (the very front or side of the battery) then the piping will be curved. Piping already from large to small to fit TB size.....

LOL sorry about the confusion. I apologise for not being clear. Pls find attached the picture of the air filter. I think in the second part of your post, you seem to know what I'm talking about...yeah, the piping will be curved. I just wonder if that hotbits setup or the 'extended to the side' setup will be better Anyone? Thx Attached thumbnail(s)

Actually I prefer the first one. Yes, the further from heat is better, but we are talking about CAI while driving, therefore blocking the heated air from the radiator is the main thing that is why most covered air intake have their nozzle up front just under the bonnet, or near the headlights area. The first pic clearly shows that the separation is done and cool air is directly from the front. The second pic shows that the open pod is now a close pod similar like original......  ........my 2 sens This post has been edited by vr2turbo: Nov 8 2011, 07:46 AM
