Make her Growl!

Anonymous · March 31, 2004, 09:04

Read somewhere that if you pull of a pipe from the air filter you get a louder growl from the old MR2 s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

I fancy trying this, but is it easy to do(and put back if I don't like it) and does it effect the performance of the car (it must be like that for some reason).

I could do with some advise. s:? :? s:?

Basically; Inlet tube removed = Sounds good, but engine breathes hot air leading to power reduction

Hmmm Not into that power reduction stuff. Looks like I may have to stop being a tight git and buy a induction kit.

An induction kit will do the exact same thing... its sucking in the same hot air. what you want is the intake pipe that a load of us ordered on a GB. Replaces the restrictive elbow with a nice shiny metal one.

The group buy has already ended so unless markiii has ordered any extra you may have to wait a while...

I've had quite a few Pms from people since the GB ended which have pretty much taken care of teh spares I ordered.

But hang around once this is all sorted I may organiose another.
