It's a vaccum pipe IIRC, I've fitted an induction kit and just left mine open.

it's the vacuum intake surely so it's supplied with clean air?

Noooooo

You need a filter on it!

Should be filtered clean air!

Make your own!

is the pipe that comes off the inlet and into the maf sensor 80mm? Think I'm going to buy a stainless 45 degree bend off ASH and have a cone on the end of that

looks like that induction job might intake a bit of warm air from the engine bay no?

Make no difference really

Still pulled 198bhp and 332lb/ft on an air restricted rolling road (mapped pd150)

I think it was 76mm!

Best bet is to measure it!

You need to be careful on the pd130 as coolant hoses in that area can get in the way
