Air Diversion Panels for the Zed.. Thoughts?


Chromatic

Recommended Posts

I made my own 'cold air intake' a while back, and then added a slam panel:

 

A piece of flex connected to the bumper nostril:

The added the slam panel with the 'guide' funnel bit on it:

Not sure the slam pannel helps all that much since I have a piece of flex in the way underneath it. But then I bought it for appearances anyway.

Couldn't say that this set up definitely increases cold air the the cone filter, but I'm fairly sure it can't hurt the chances of it. What I really need to do is build a heat shield for the intake - shame the Takeda didn't come with one.

About the heat shield for the filter ~ have you seen this stuff before?; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HEAT-SHIELD-HEAT-BARRIER-G2-GII-DOUBLE-LAYER-MATERIAL-4-45mm-ALLUMINUM-/171275197532?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item27e0cc1c5c

 

Easily bendable to form shapes and use in the engine bay for heat shielding/barriers. Just a heads up. :thumbs:
