it will be interesting if the rules change for this, currently its only a 5W limit, and 5W SMD is stupid torch bright... but handy at night off ebay?

ok injen intake fitted finally had to put the coolent bottle to a different spot compared to the protege but besides that everything else bolted straght up
only thing that i was disapointed about was the injen sticker i rubbed it once with my finger to remove a bubble and it went black it lost it colour gonna order another stick when i get time another thing you dont have to remove your front bumper to do it just undo the black plastic under the car and you can fit the pod easy |

Looks awesome, might have to change mine a little so it runs in a similar fashion, it looks like it will be a little more out the heat from the radiator.
Can you check the temp of the piping after driving round for an hour on a hot day, I would like to know how much cooler it runs that way. My intake pipe gets to over 60 degrees by the time I get to work in the morning. |

I went down for a thrash through wisemans ferry when I got home mine was about 48 would have been hotter when I was thrashing it but if yours is 60 just driving to work you need to do some work if you want a closer look at mine I can meet you somewhere and show how it runs

I spend an hour in the morning with the AC on so I guess the fans are pumping stinking hot air thought the engine bay cooking everything, I also assume that as yours is made out of aluminium and will absorb much less heat as mine is made from stainless steel, which from reading a few pages of information online looks like the worst material you could use to build an intake from, apart from it looking awesome.
However from more reading I found out that under full throttle the air would be in the intake for less than a second so the heat of intake wouldnt affect if by that much. Its only when its not flowing air that it will heat up which explains why it feels a bit meh on take off then its fine, its getting rid of the hot air. Im still making a new one though. |
