Do you only have the carbon fiber box?
I've been told that itg do not recommend a cold air feed, not sure why.
Ill go and measure the trumpet and output from filter but not sure how compatible with other stuff it is.

only got box, £70 ebay (hopefully its the correct box [-o< )I took a chance, it looks like the ITG AB65 although I wont count my turnips till the chickens come in (as it might be the similar BAB65 box).

I need to get someone to make up a bracket (or i'll bodge one) I have noticed that some pics that the Maxogens have no cold air feed :? . so i wont bother for now, seems odd that one though.

I just need to find/make a bracket, buy the filter (£50) and connect Maxogen to the OEM\after market induction pipe.hey presto a reasonably cheap Maxogen.....maybe.

cheers

Okay trumpet is pretty much 4 inch on the button, the hose is 2 inch and 7/8ths about 73mm.

Ah so you out bid me eh? It looks like it's the right one and I think it doesn't have a cold feed directly connected as the air flow would then be in relation to how fast you are going and may even pressurise it too much.
I will post a link to a web site that has the filters later as when I spoke to merlinmotor sport they would only sell the maxogens as a complete unit?

i thought there would be more bidders IMHO, as much as I love u all i didnt want to advertise it on here :D

Didnt i post the link up for the different filters?

also are these not the Maxogen filters from Merlin

http://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/ITG-AIR-FILTERS-ITG-MAXOGEN/c432_435/index.html
Not sure but when I rang merlin they said they would get back to me and when they did they said itg said it wasnt viable? maybe just to get me to fork out the £400 ?
No worries if you won might get it off you cheap some time :lol:

Right here's a pic but its a lot more complicated than I thought, maybe its best if I were to do a stencil or something for you.

ITG will sell me the plate for £35 (hmmmm), does the plate connect to the closed end of the carbon housing (mine doesnt have any holes drilled) and the front OEM filter housing mount?


cheers for your help hoo.

You mount the bracket onto the existing airbox mount using the two flanges and then mount the flat end of the max box onto the plate using the three bolts and then tighten up. I can almost do this in my head now I suppose I really ought to actually fit it.

when you put it on can you take a pic of the bracket, i cant work out where the two flanges connect, the larger flange goes on to original air box mount but the smaller flange?

cheers
