Intake ???

I currently have the dp,mp,cb combo, and i was wondering if i would be able to throw on filters on the existing airbox pipes. This would enable me to free up some valuable space in the bay, and add a little power. The motor has a ported wastegate and hold 10lbs on cold nights here in FL. The motor is also ported lightly on the stock ecu...no check engine lights, and the port can not even be hear in the exhaust, but you feel it upstairs. Please tell me if this would work, thanks in advance.

Of course you can.

You're running those mods on a stock ecu? That's scary..... I think if you put those filters on it will accelerate your car towards dissaster.

Yeah, I'm looking for those filters too. I'd like to know the K&N part numbers for them since Auto Zone or any of those places don't have specs on each part. Without a number, you can't get anything.

I have a pettit racing intake that i will be putting up for sale soon. It has been on my car for about 7 miles.

I bought it used so I am willing to let it go for $200. This comes w/ the headshield, the 3 filters, the mounting pipes and the silencing hose from the airpump.

Save you all the work!

PM me if you are interested

Apexi PFC remote commander on the towel.
You can run the Apexi Power Intakes using the stock accordion tubing if you want. I ordered it and the RX7-store polished tubing today(The lower Bomez pipe on Ebay(($45/set))doesn't fit for crap even stretching the coupler).

Nice setup, Clayne.

man, you got all those mods and no ECU?!? i would greatly urge you to get a tuned ECU to avoid pushing too much boost and blowing your seals.

he has a ported wastegate....therefore..im gonna say putting filters on with the full exhaust is safe....just be sure the boost does stay below 10psi......just in case...
