Cl55 NA Induction...anyone done one?

[rossy]

Seen some nice kit for the Kompressor version...

My main question is can you get a T peice to fit on the main plenum/Maf coz the rest I could make up myself...with stainless pipe and hose etc..
So far my only option seems to be a single pipe all the way down one side but as you have to remove the engine covers to fit think the twin looks better and would perform better too..

I'm sure I can make somthing up for less than the £500+ for this...

Seaching for divider not T piece and found this...3" which seems about right...may do the job..

What are you trying to achieve by doing this?

 

[rossy]

better air flow and some induction noise....

 

[Abdul]

Take the airbox intake tubes off and see if you like the sound first...

Took the hole thing off and sounds awsome!

Many thanks for that.

Wouldn't the piping for those air intake kits get very hot unless you heat wrap them? They'll look horrible if you but I don't think they'll be of any use otherwise.

If you don't mind the heat soak just remove your intake tubes.

The BMC's could work but you'd want piping with some sort of heat wrap on them.

That kit is fabtechs

I have it on my e55. The induction noise is an improvement but no where near as loud as you would expect.
They do just sell the y pipe too if that's all you require.
I am Very happy with mine though

The T piece is not the bit to use as it restricts air flows
