    Default 3TGTE airfilter set up?

    Hey guys im just wondering if anyone can post some pics of their intake set up for 3tgte and what sort of bends/piping you used to get it how you wanted?

    I have a highflowed ct20 and rush air filter but they dont seem to be spot on 2.5"turbo inlet and 3" filter inlet...They are mongy sizes...

    Is there somthing from another car that fits?Can I use rubber joiners?why do i still have this rash?..............oops sorry wrong forum


    Thanks in advance,

    Nath

    i did a dodgy for mine... i got a 2.5" hose, cut 10mm off it and used it as a spacer... so what i get is...

    2.5" SS pipe > 10mm 2.5" hose > 3" air filter neck tightened with hose clamp

    nice and simple

    just buy one of those 2.5"->3" 45deg silicon bends from Ebay.... they will do the trick nicely.

    u will notice that i have got both the 2.5-3"joiner and the air filter touching, there is about 2 inches of 3inch pipe inside them. good luck
