Black VR 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 just fitting mine, where is the best place for the cold air feed? Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 IF you have air con then remove carbon canister if you don't have air con then in front of carbon canister as there is a gap Link to post Share on other sites
Black VR 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 thanks for the reply, i do have air con, but am not sure what you mean by removing the canister Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 There is a black canister by the fluid container down near drivers side of front bumper/wing. It has 2 tubes going in to it. just take it out and route pipework for cold air thro there Link to post Share on other sites
Black VR 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 ok, do i then refit the canister somewhere else? Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 No....mines still in the boot. I think they just absorb vapours from fuel tank. The 2 pipes on top, black one needs blocking off and feed t'other one down wing as it vents fuel vapour Link to post Share on other sites
Nerih 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 if you want you can get some barbs and use some fuel hose to route the pipes under the front bumper and round to the other side (symetrically) where there are identical mounting holes...very easy job, ofc removal is probably the easiest.

Black VR 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 thank craggsy, sounds awesome !lol Link to post Share on other sites
alanf 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 The canister collects and holds the fuel vapour, when the engine is up and running a valve opens and the contents are sucked into the engine and burnt off! well thats how it goes on mine :| if you do remove it make sure you blank off the pipes as you dont want to suck any thing nasty up the pipe and into the engine!
