Figured as needed to fix my maf to t/b pipe and had to disconnect the air induction kit I had decided to make a new one.

Nice and simple ordered a silicone 100mm-90mm reducer 5 inch length and a ramair filter 100mm neck size. It's the largest filter surface area I could see when having a look think its a skyline one.

Cleaned maf and tb while it was apart and trimmed half inch off the silicone pipe to help fit inside wing.

Took an hour I guess, noise is about the same (I had a k+n cone filter in a metal heat shield before)

Will log some intake temps over the next few weeks to monitor any heat soak but I don't expect it to make too much difference. Total cost for filter and silicone was about £50 and I still have my k+n filter, pipe and enclosure to sell i guess.

I did look at trying to reuse my k+n heat shield but it wouldn't fit due to the size of the filter but also a slight angle difference would have needed a silicone hose with a slight angle built in.

I did try and find a smooth maf pipe found them on eBay Aussie but wouldbt post to UK. MF list them on their site but sold out. I agree running maf'less would be better and look better to be honest this was more of a forced maf pipe fix fix and slight change than a planned mod.

The cone has metal cage internally and is multi layered foam its also advertised as maf friendly.
