**CommVTS** · 05-09-2009, 11:34 PM

ill chuck some pics up tomorrow morning as its just in the boot at the moment.

Here are the pics guys.

Thats the exact one I have.. I've sealed it with black silastic around the airbox and with tape around where the 2pieces slide into eachother... as it wasn't the best fit... I had to cut out the sections where it sits on the 2 screws, then I opened the mouth of it up to let a bit more air in..

Use a heatgun to help ease/mould it into place if it doesn't fit properly..

So what bits did u cut? The plastic on top of the radiator?
Thanks for the tips, will definately do the same.

**BJ31OS** · 06-09-2009, 04:04 PM

I bought mine today got the last one in Newcastle.

There not the easiest to fit you have to cut a fair bit away of the plastic that sits on top of the radiator.

But it looks good once fitted and it sucks more air you can hear the difference.

**CommVTS** · 06-09-2009, 04:27 PM

Would u be able to post a pic of how much u cut off the plastic bit?

**BJ31OS** · 06-09-2009, 04:30 PM

I cut about a inch and a half off maybe 2 inches at most

**MR_VX** · 06-09-2009, 04:33 PM

wow i got one just like this off ebay start of the year for $100 with a K&N filter, i turfed the second peice that conects to the air box and cut the factory one up to suit for a way better fit, and pop rivited it together and put black electrical tape over top and its all good!

i have some little christmas tree black plastic clips to hold it to the car but they keep popping out so i think i might have to nut and bolt the bastard on

**CommVTS** · 06-09-2009, 07:20 PM

alrighty, put it in today by cutting a fair bit of the plastic off, but i noticed that there is about a 10mm gap where the pipe goes into the air filter box, any ideas on sealing that off?

**danja** · 06-09-2009, 07:26 PM

Mine fitted nice and snug i had to tidy it up alittle on the join as it had some little plastic spikes on it but once i trimmed them it fitted great.

**CommVTS** · 06-09-2009, 08:03 PM

yeah i think ive found the problem, just need to trim a little more plastic off and she'll be right. Ill muck around with it tomorrow.
Thanks for the help mate

Which repco? Why so cheap?

**BJ31OS** · 07-09-2009, 08:12 AM

Any Repco could have them best to just ring and ask if the do. why so cheap they will no longer be stocking Aunger brand (thats what i was told)

**minitsbay** · 07-09-2009, 05:25 PM

a few of the sydney stores still have some none of the newcastle ones do but there happy to send between stores as there getting mine up for me

thanks for heads up

[QUOTE=And_ROOS;1279285]Which repco? Why so cheap?[/QUO

There hell cheap coz Aunger have stopped producing them. That's what the repco guy told me any way and they just want to clear floor space.

**Jamesmaier** · 07-09-2009, 06:01 PM

NO MORE STOCK CLOSE TO ME ARGHHH, such a good price lol

**Jamesmaier** · 07-09-2009, 06:31 PM

how much power do you gain from these things anyway?? work better with pod filter??

**CommVTS** · 07-09-2009, 06:35 PM

^^^ looks good mate, mine still not fitting right there is a gap where the cai meets the air box. see pic. I think its doing this because the cai pipe is sitting on this arm frame thingo (no idea what its actually called) which is like a frame/support for the fans. see pic.
Any ideas on what to do would be much appreciated.
cheers
