arch Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 I take it the air filter will be shrouded in some way to stop water soaking it and restricting its ability to pass air
green_goblin Posted September 25, 2009 Author Posted September 25, 2009 It sit's in behind the intercooler pipe in the boxed section infront of the driver wheel, this is were it has been mounted for a long time as to get rid of sucking in hot air and has always been ok, the old one i took out had been in there for a few years and was a bit ****ted up but with a check on it every year it will be fine!!
