ASHLEYG 4 Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 OK so I still need a bit of advice with this! I've mounted the hard pipe from the charger through the inner wing and with the air flow meter attatched, there's absolutely NO room for an air filter!I spoke to stealth yesterday and they said I've either got to make the best of a bad situation or mount the air flow meter the other side of the car. They also said thad the further the AFM away from the charger the better. So I'm thinking of extending the AFM loom (AGAIN!) and making some pipework to go from the inner wing up through the cross members and in to the bumper somewhere.So has anyone had similar probs to Me?Need some pics!Cheers, Ash Link to post Share on other sites

xyber 1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Try an AEM dryflow filter, the are long and thin and should hide away nicely Link to post Share on other sites
