Funny...then why this post ??

So here's my setup. "conical" filter box with no element inside. This cost me all ofRs. 0 for the whole thing

Seems to be a sudden spurt in everyone's sense of humor. Let me clarify lest this leads to WW3:

1) The VW in the first pic (Post #2) IS NOT my car. I only said that's how I'd do it.

2) The dolphin in the second pic (Post #9) IS my car. I used that photo only to express my disdain for the whole K&N thing.

Thereby making my relevant contribution to this thread.

Any problems with that?

Does anyone know what K&N Air Filter fits in a 2002 Lancer (indian lancer)? Please let me know the Part number from K&N website (K&N High Performance Air Filters, Oil Filters, & Cold Air Intakes - Official K&N Engineering Site)

faithless_1984 · 25th June 2007, 03:15

CHILL...it was just a simple question.!

You didn`t clarify in your post (#15) as to which pic/car you were reffering to thats why the confusion.

This is the K&N setup in my Palio

redsfx · 25th June 2007, 11:31

Which set up do you guys think is feasible in terms of performance and vfm? I am just worried that on getting a typhoon or cold intake fitted my engine would just heat up. I seem to be posing this question to everybody in the forum as well as outside but nobody gives me a clear cut answer. In chennai's hot weather I just need to know which is the best option.

tsk1979 · 25th June 2007, 11:58

Now if only people did some basic performance testing(no dyno needed) instead of "Car feels faster" "Low end grunt is better" it would lay a rest to this debate.
Most people who have K&N filters installed do not have any idea in terms of "numbers" about the performance of their car.
You do not need a 0-100 number just s 20-80 in third gear and 40-100 in 5th gear to tell you whether the money you spent was worth it.

rjstyles69 · 25th June 2007, 13:39

Thats my K&N setup. Pretty similar to binz's setup

redsfx · 25th June 2007, 17:43

rjstyle,

Pretty cool setup you have there. Would appreciate if you could give us the specifications and the cost. Is that a typhoon I see there? Where did you source it from and how good is it in terms of hp increase and overall performance and growl/grunt?

Will I be able to fit in one of thos in my lancer and what would I need to do that? Any idea where it can be sourced in chennai?

badboyscad · 25th June 2007, 19:43

thats just a conical filter..you better get a TYPHOON kit (part number : 69-6540TB or 69-6540TP ..i think) if you want a increase in the hp..i think it increase 4.5 hp..and the cost would be somewhere around 6K to 8K or 9K..and....red..the installation has to be in such a way that it should not suck hot air or water..how about shifting the battery to the boot so that you get extra space for the installation..

rjstyles69 · 25th June 2007, 19:51

redsfx thanks mate.

Thats a Conical filter from K&N.
Cost is here http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/333975-post147.html (K&N filters) .

Install was done here in bangalore. Chennai ,I have no clue. Try contacting one of our fellow members in chennai.
Growl definitely yes a mild one. I love it, but that has given way to my FFE sound which I even enjoy the more

.
Performance yes a little bit. Increase in bhp

. No clue man, havent been able to measure it as such.

badboyscad · 25th June 2007, 19:57

this image shows a K&N RAMPOD fitted to a lancer...i hope it gives you an idea of how to fit the conical filter or the typhoon kit..

badboyscad · 25th June 2007, 20:24

here is another air intake installation in a lancer EVO 8

I would. They work. But they're rather expensive in India.

That's a horrible install. Poor engine is going to be starved of air.

Also, is cyl 4's exhaust really going into the radiator?!

badboyscad · 25th June 2007, 22:52

thats why i suggested shifting the battery to the boot so that a typhoon kit can comfortably sit there..and the if u look real close, the cyl 4's exhaust goes to the manifold ..notice the pipe from the radiator is a seperate one and it does not merge with the 4 cyl's exhaust
