Pics of my m2 intake/single setup. Will this be enough air?
#4
The last image was smaller than I realy wanted.
The filter I plan on running in the air box is a round tapered type. The base of the filter itself is 5". The length is 7" long. At the top (or end of the filter) its 4.5". I'm hoping this is enough air filter for the turbo. If not someone let me know.
I was trying to post some more pictures, but the forum is having problems again.
Let me know what you guys think. CJ

i dont know why that wouldnt be enough air. but i do have one question for you. do you think the flex pipe will suck in or fall apart and possibly go into your turbo? i would make that a hard pipe. other than that i think it looks great.

That looks fantastic. I want to get some kind of box around my single's filter. Nice work. I am sure it will be enough air.
If you have doubts about the silver ducting, I have been using Santoprene TPR hose from mcmaster.com both with the stock turbos and now with my single for several years. It is cheap, flexible, available in lots of sizes, and is proven to hold up very well under the hood.

I think the M2 box might be a little to restrictive for a single because all the air has to come through that little opening in the bottom, easily creating a vacume inside the box. What I did on my twins is put some spaces between the the box and the lid on the passenger side. This will let the box breath from the top in the higher RPM's, but only the air near the fender/ headlight area will enter the box. Hope this makes sense.
