i can see people are liking the fillter

lol the intake pipe is 3'inches and to fit it on the throttle body just use a jubeliee clip and tighten it up job done

but because its not a saxo made intake pipe you need to ither mod it for the oil pipe from the rocker cover to fit into it or get a little filtter for the oil or a catch tank depends on how much you want to spend i think im going to try and mod mine with some pipe so il keep you posted on how it goes incase you want to do the same

liamowen123 · 4th July 2010, 15:08

just fitted my induction had do mod it like i said to fit the oil pipe form the rocker so i had a think and got a plumping pipe for a tap and used a few washers to make it air tight then fitted it onto the intake pipe

liamowen123 · 4th July 2010, 15:11

just need to make a braket to hold the induction pipe in place and im going to fit some chrome bits around the places where the pipe meats the throtle body as its abit messy
