Hey sorry to sort of hijack the thre but i was wondering where you got your open cone from Ric 2001?
I Just replaced my green cotten panel filter for an open cone....went for a universal Jetex with a 20 degree elbow in red £50 or something ( so it sits in the bottom part of the airbox) only thing i would comment on, make sure u have a good cold air feed....dunno bout the rest of the cupra guys but the cone does get warm! not noticed a drop in power due to it tho!
What a difference the noise is with the 007p and cone ....still got the std TIP.....for now!
Thanks for the fast reply lads i think i will just go for the one Damoegan has also ordered a new tip in blue
Yeh i cant wait to hear the beast i just made a readers ride thread mate check it out if you want
..damien did your tip come with jubilee clips or the apropriate things to fasten the tip on etc?
could be handy. did you use big jubilee clips or the stregthened ones that ive seen for sale somewhere? mainly worried about the main one that bolts to the turbo.
The pipe that goes into the side of the airbox what is this? Is it just and auxilary air pipe?. I just wondering what to do with it when i ditch the airbox and put the cone filter there. Have people just left this sitting there so its redundant??
Cheers
i bought a "oil brether filter" 18mm OD neck i think, from ebay.....£5 or something like that!
this is what i bought......http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/18mm-Mini-Mot...66:2|39:1|72:1683|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50
yeah i put a little hole in the bottom part of the air box and cable tie around the pipe....the 18mm breather is still a bit too small O.D so i just wrapped it in electrical tape to bulk the OD a bit....so much that i didnt need a jubilee clip
thanks bud.....wish i had the money to spend more on it......have to say the cupra does look awesome in the grey colour...spot on!
