Thread: Teaser of the Week!

A handle to grab onto to get in? Going to screw it to the dash on the passenger side, closely missing the airbag

Flattened duct to run through the wheel well for a snorkel?

Good guess I think. For some reason my eyes saw it as much smaller, so didn't realise. But I think you could be right there.

Edit: Or is it much smaller and this is just a practice run for the bigger pipe?

On ya Ron,

I knew it would'nt take too long for the smarties on here to figure it out

So what is the concensus.

a - Flow rate should be same as 75mm
b - no turbulence effect from spiral ducting
c - less likely to puncture
d - fit easily to 75mm 90 deg bend for airbox & snorkel
e - no need to modify inner liner

Seems to tick all the boxes.

Will do some real world research tomorrow (FANTOM's fender coming off )

Oops I forgot.

e - Simple
f - Cheap

Looks good to me. Supposedly filling it with sand before getting to it with hte heat gun will help form it without crinkles or folds. But that's just internet searching previously, not from experience.

I will be very interested what the width and height restrictions are through there so you know how flat it should/has to be made. So thank you in advance.

Hopefully we can confirm the ID required prior to landing so the materials can all be sitting there waiting (which I think general perspective is it should be 3 inches or 76mm)

Edit: Removing all evidence of my mistake

My thinking is to start with 75mm pipe that way you can't lose volume just change shape in centre section to fit between liner & chassis, then you also have correct od at each end for hose fitment.

Would love to hear others comments good or bad as to whether it should work, Cant be any worse than flexipipe surely!
