AIRBOX for THROTTLE BODIES

[evouk]

Am going to be looking ta reducing the intake noise from the throttle bodies, i love the sound but no good to pass 98db drive by!!!!

I have no idea what size box to go for, i have someone who states they can make one up for me but will need to decide on what size to go for. Space is an issue in the engine bay also.

I can then run a feed to the front of the car to get more air flow, filter currently sits under bonnet and air flow pretty restricted.

jenvey reccomend at least 16 litres of air!!

Anyone got knowledge of these?

i think the airboxs size it's depends of the length of the throtle boddies.which you use on your engine???

I think they get that from a theoretical "gulp" factor if 8-8.5 times the displaced volume, however this is typically for a reduced throttle plate, i.e. a restrictor....you'll be fine on "what fits" so long as the in-flow opening isnt overly small.

Yeah thats what i thought, i had considered the gulp factor!!!
