Jabbasport Induction kit

[Lee-GTi]

Hi all,
Does any one have some pic's of this kit on the 180bhp leon cupra?

thanks

 

[Lee-GTi]

Ohhh so no one has this kit fitted then?

 

[Ruddmeister]

Same principle as the ibiza one AFAIK, filter + heatshield

Should be piccys on Jabbasports site.

At the price they want I can't imagine they sell many

 

[Lee-GTi]

Yeah i've seen that, i've just fitted one to my mates leon! and its an awesome kit! i just wanted to see what other people had done with the small breath filter that it comes with!

seems a bit pricey to me, have a look at this as a possible alternative

£135 from awesome..... £95 cheaper seems like a bargain to me!

 

[Lee-GTi]

That one from awesome looks like crap!

Here is the one from Jabbasport
Its great and fits fookin brill 8)

 

[karlosR]

fair enough mate. if thats what you want then it'll be money well spent! i'll admit it looks a lot better than the neuspeed filter.

I dont spose any one has a video of this so i can hear the sound??

 

[karlosR]

where does it get its cold air from then? does it use the standard airbox ducting?

 

[Deleted member 14928]

no it uses the big blue filter and sucks the air in from the surrounding area.

By having the heatshild the amound of warm air is dramatically reduced

 

[karlosR]

i was wondering what that big blue thing was! what i meant was now the filter (that big blue thing) is isolated from the rest of the engine bay where does it get a fresh air supply from? if it was completely enclosed with nowhere to get air from surely it would make the engine almost asthmatic and reduce power!

 

[Deleted member 14928]

You have a point, however i can only guess that it draws in the air from round the edge of the bonnet. but without seeing one in the flesh i dont entirely know. Surely Jaabasport wouldnt make it so that the filter cant breathe, they must know what they are doing.

Does someone with one know if there is an airfeed to this??

I've got one on the LCR too, bargain off ebay! Theres a cut out in the bottom corner of the heatshield to allow a duct through to the filter. I tried to get the standard plastic one to fit but couldn't get the sheild to sit properly so will run a seperate feed up sometime. Have found that there is still a heatsoak problem when it was on the rollers before Christmas, but no worse than with the standard box on.

For £230 i couldn't justify it, mainly cos i feel i could make the sheild at work and buy a JR filter for £20 at inters, but for the £50 i paid, it saved some work!

....the jabba must sound good though, being open coned.

 

[cliveyp]

I think so
