Airbox upgrade for dual bat safari?

Post by garth »

Gudday

Can anyone suggest a larger airbox that'll fit in front of the 'port side' bat to improve airflow over the standard TD42T model with snorkel? (or link to)
It needs to flow enough air to feed 12mm Rotor/plunger modded pump and a GT30 turbo.

have seen the custom made one Weeman built but dont have that much space with the safari twin bat setup.

regards

Thanks for the heads up boys.

That autospeed sites a gem! will look at the falcon or holden box as there are plenty around here in Auck.
I have seen photos of tomahawk gear, its well made alright, but i am hoping to find a easy fix 1st before having to fabricate a unit.

Does anyone actually know how much power you can poke through the standard TD42T box?

Regards

me3@neuralfibre.com posted those links up a few weeks ago. There's some good reading in there.
