acf8181 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 if its fits it should work, but will be less efficient than your current o.e. airbox as it'll draw in lots of heat (and the vr6 engine bay gets very hot) which saps power. best thing to do is get a metal fabrication place to make an enclosure for it, then feed ducting from the front of the car directly into it.

VR6Steve 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 The Vipers are like the BMC CDA's aren't they? Link to post Share on other sites

binliner 0 Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 will be interested to see what the vipers like... you'd expect more than just a nice sound to warrant the £250 price tag Link to post Share on other sites
eViL 0 Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 will be interested to see what the vipers like... you'd expect more than just a nice sound to warrant the £250 price tag You don't get much sound tbh, just a shit load more torque and power. I can honestly this kit was worth every penny. Looks the bollox too.. Link to post Share on other sites
