Yes, I was there last Saturday :)

Just to let you guys know what happened that day...

Just as I have expected... the BMC Style CAI system was too long for my GTi. No way to fit it in just like that. There were 3 solutions:

1) Move the fuse box - But move to where??
2) Move the battery - Move to the boot/trunk, but it takes too much time and effort and would be costly as it involves rewiring and customisation.
3) Custom make new shorter air pipe/hose to replace standard GTi air pipe/hose - A shorter L shape aluminium or stainless steel pipe.

So far, option 3 is the most sensible option. If everything is fine, then mass producing it would be easy.

So let's wait for another 2 weeks. Hopefully everything will fit perfectly.

Another BMC CF user. Good choice. pricey but worth the money. Trust me, i know i'm using it :) Can't give comment on Racecraft CF intake version, since didn't install it. But Racecraft CF intake look superb :) seen it, touch it, didn't install though. Installation is a nightmare. i have to custom my piping also to accomodate the AFM. But the result after all the agony, is priceless :)

I have been using BMC CF intake for more than 20000km already. For those who love intake sound, you'll love it. I'm quite suprise when the review for the Racecraft intake the intake sound were slightly muted?

Performance wise, didn't dyno to test the result, acceleration wise just superb, you pull all the way to the redline easily. If you don't plan to change your exhaust to noisy version, this intake will do. Other driver will know you're behind them.

But word of warning, if you read carefully the marking on the BMC CF intake, it is engraved stating that NOT FOR STREET USE, FOR TRACK USE ONLY. but in Malaysia, who cares? Foreign country regulation don't appply to Malaysia :)

halo...i have a Waja 1.6 SOHC 16V (auto) year 2001....would it be suitable for my car? thanks. Also, many tuning shops i went to recommends that i use a drop in replacement type air filter. So instead of the drop in, are they any alternatives? many thanks

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your support in our products. Links Sunway is customising a special adapter to fit the BMC style intake onto Proton engines. We will let you guys know when it's ready.

For the smaller cars or if you can't wait to get your hands on some CF Filters, we do have an alternative, almost the same concept, carbon fiber heatshield built-in filters. Here's a pic of how they look like.

Price is fantastic. Only RM130 for the shorter ones and RM150 for the longer ones.



Please Visit our dealers to get yours now!

AccordR

yes, these filters are universal, both NA & Turbo also can use! :D [IMG]tp://zerotohundred.com/newforums/images/icons/icon14.gif[/IMG]

just wondering, the filter is inside the carbon fibre intake, is it cleanable or you have to replace the whole item?

btw, instead of the alternative, the item in the review, will it have a version to fit the new Myvi? the smaller alternatives doesn't look as impressive as the reviewed unit.. if you get what i mean :D

     

wanzer

Ya lor....I also curious to know if I can get one for Kelisa.
Is the filter washable? Or can we use another filter to replace?

     

SataniC

yes the filter is washable...same material as KNN's filters....wash...hang to dry and refit them back....
