yea thats what ive heard, my tuners swear that the airbox's cant make more than 300awkw or something? didnt like me putting them back in over the pods i had in there.. but i had heard many stories of them going near the 400awkw mark so i dont know..

I think you can modify the stock box to suck air from the fender, there is a hole and abit that sticks into the guard, you just need to cut the hole in the box from memory.. will look into this at the next stage though. not sure if you did this joel?

ive been assured they don't become a restriction to ~400kw

I'll soon see :-)

Adam, ive sent a msg to paul asking for the price. i'll let you know.

My box has this in it stock, has a vent on the side with an induction pipe into the fender also

can you take a few photos. Thatt don't sound stock. (the vent is and the hole in the fender is there for a seperate reason).

whats the duct going to the fender for? i was just assuming, having not looked into this too much, only heard that you can cut a hole somewhere that opens them up a little? assumed it was that section but not sure if there was a hole in already there etc?...

can you take a few photos. Thatt don't sound stock. (the vent is and the hole in the fender is there for a seperate reason).

Yeh np ill take a few pics, i could be wrong maybe it holds it in place but i sware it has a vent on the side as i just took it out 30min ago, there is deffs something on the side of the airbox to.

Sorry to report, thats looks all stock. You had me excited for a mod for a while.

That thing that goes into the fender is a little resonator, it can be removed for greater airflow.

You could make a pipe from that in the fender and run it down to the front bar or into the wheel well

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
