Looks good mate does the air feed make any difference

 

[Rosco 2.0]

Any chance of a little how to style write up on that air feed! I'd be very interested! Did you remove the resonator box etc...?

Literally takes 30 seconds to pull off was sat at the lights with window down and could hear more engine noise but haven't hit vtec yet should hear the RSK more

The horn hole looks made for a cold air feed now you've done that. Good job! :smt023

Re: My new civic type r Fn2

This is how i done my custom ram air feed.


you will need 1m of 83mm 2ply ducting, a ducting flout which will fit your ducting and 2 jubilee clips.

1.Remove the front bumper.

2.Remove the battery and the battery tray which the battery sits on. you will see 2 bolts take them out and wiggle the tray out.If it will not come out there is another 2 at the side of the tray which will need slackening as the tray slides into these.

3. Remove the horn this is where your ducting will go through once fitted i put it back on the chassie where a bolt comes through just unscrew the bolt and add this back on.

4. start to dissconnect all of the stock air intake this was a bit nippy for me but be patcient and you will be fine.There is a bolt holding resonator box in place(i missed this and wondered why it wasn't budging after a lot of pulling and wiggling)

5.you will need to CUT of a small section of the conector of the resonator box which will conect your air ducting to the pipe to the bend which mugen and tegiwa conect to. i got this image from google

6.once you have done that feed the ducting through and into the hole where the horn used to be and conect the flute(this will hold your ducting in place).Then its a case of putting everything back together again.
Here are the photos when i did mine i hope this helps as this is my first time writing anything like this and please feel free to ask me any questions if you get stuck.cheers
