OTR (OVER THE RADIATOR) COLD AIR INTAKE VT VX VY V6 (eBay item 170386491499 end time 18-Mar-11 05:45:32 AEDST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

i found this, not sure if it will be any good or if the bonnet would shut properly?

anyone seen these or even got one?? would it be better than the ones from Mace etc??

cheers everyone

[Cameron P]

looks similar to mine, and the bonnet shuts with no problem at all!

[psycho_smurf]

Everyone grumbled at me when I removed the plastic shroud from the top of the radiator and said how important it is for directing air flow...

[Zarconia]

Yeah but psycho your in rockhampton. Most people are 10 years behind on everything. I still get people looking at my mace CAI and having to pick their jaws off the floor >_>

[vtspeed]

yea ive had a look at them, but not sure to go with it or the mace version cai, from what i can tell they should work great because it reduses the amount of drag and restiction the air has on its way to the engine, the only thing that conserns me is how close the pipe is to the engine so it may heat up a fair bit

[don0xer]

for $400 you will be dissappointed over a $50 home made job performance wise....

if i were you, i would get some mace rockers + make your own air intake.... similar price really

Question:

VT Berlina's Air intake is already infront of the the Radiator .. as per Factory Standard??

Nope. SS come factory standard. Hence SS induction

Edit: I MAY BE WRONG lol.

Don't know where you pulled that out of, "SS Inductions" is a completely independent company that has nothing to do with Holden except make parts for them and other brands like Ford.

My VX V6 came with a factory intake pipe that was on the top of the radiator, it was small, which was why I replaced it with an CAI kit.

To the OP, with that Ebay kit, where the hell is the air filter?

[sus_038]

The filter sits right at the front of the mouth - but could potentially get wet? hmm maybe i just wont bother spending cash on a ecotec and buy a V8

Are you for real Acarmody?!? with all the posts of your's i have read on here i thought you would know where a OTR air filter is.

[HamaTime™]

car its at the front of it buddy like they all are.

To the OP, would you like me to explain the effect this will have on a stock motor. Nothing.

$375 wasted on a big plastic thing that will do.... Nothing.

You know what they say about assumptions. "They are the mother of all #### ups"

[Zarconia]

[DLFHUB666]

[Kieran263]

[DLFHUB666]

[DLFHUB666]

Well what if you jumped on here asked a qusetion he says do this because he ASSUMED you could an it ####ed your car, would you be happy???

[Kieran263]

But fair point about the assumption thing, but if you do exactly what someone on an
internet forum tells you to do without getting a second, third or fourth opinion then you
deserve to have your car f*****. My opinion only

[Zarconia]

It wasnt a serious engine question though..... He only asked if shit came standard.
