is there a way to replace the "plastic" Y that goes into the throttle body? if if you do all that work on the air box to get a "ram air" effect, that damn thing is slo small and restrictive it's almost a shame.....

If you want to use the exsisting filter locations then I don't think you can make it any bigger then it is cause then you won't be able to close the bonnet.

The only other way is to run it a different way and make some bigger air ducts but I don't think there is a lot to be gained.

On another note I know a mate of mine just had his TPI car dynoed and without the snorkel and filter he gained 10kw at the rear wheels!

So I guess there are gains to be made.
