Induction mods

[marT350T]

Has anyone carried out any induction mods to their cars, such as a ram air system ? If so any good gains ?

Wondered that myself. If the inlet pipe off the plenum faced forward instead of downwards, would it make a difference ?


I now hope to find out..

The PHer who took his T350 to Australia has done an induction mod - small vent halfway up the front end above the badge.

So there is more than one T350 in Oz then.

I seem to remember seeing a blue T350 in the classifieds that the same kind of thing a small vent above the badge but slightly over to the driver side.

Can anyone else shed more light on the situation , pictures would be very nice !

I thought it was you. Guess I was wrong ... someone has a blue one like yours with a mod.

A bit like this one on a Tuscan

[marT350T]

Yes thats the same type of thing I dont supposed you have got any under bonnet pics have you.

The T350 I have seen on PH belonged to a " Dookie" i think, there was a video of him doing a fly on a circuit.

Yeh that clip of dookie is at knockhill, As far as i know other than these DIY induction mods there are none,

however i was on phone to ACT performance products 2 weeks ago, they are supposidly about to release a carbon air box with carbon trumpets and some sort of ram air type feed pipe to the front, they did say it would be announced on ph soon but no sign yet. oh and yes its expensive.

Ah, I see, there was me hoping another nutter had arrived

My T350 is absolutely standard, so far has coped with the Oz climate OK but the thought of pulling in air from outside is appealing. Should help in the hot weather. I had thought about getting a scoop beside the radiator, the solution on the tuscan looks neat but on a T350 the pipe will run over the radiator, (I think). Will be pretty difficult to keep the air flow cold in standing traffic which is when it would help me most.
