I use the same as Mick and use the fog light aperture (never use the bloody things anyway) and get the ram affect by doing this. I just take it easy in heavy rain so I don't suck water up :D |
I wouldnt suck water in to the filter directly as it isnt enclosed induction kit. for an enclosed filter that sucks its air through the CAF it wouldnt be a good idea, but mine been just a CAF it wouldnt be sucking air, it wouldnt be relying on air been sucked in, more like the air been forced in to the inner wing area. i was thinking of leaving the end a couple of inches away from the open cone.

Ahh I see what you mean :)
Sounds good, although I'd still use the foglight aperture, mainly because it's the perfect size and is already there for you :p |
when Matt had his RR day a month back, there was a 160 ZR with a slightly dodgy intake setup that lost 15bhp - slight bit of fettling and it was back up to 160 again.
I am trying to decide where to move my cone to... diesels really really really hate water lol |

I've never ever found a use for foglights, seriously. Even when it's mentally foggy, they do sod all.
Plus you'll still have one left :p |
In the time mine has been located to the foglight aperture it has never been an issue, filter has been clean as a whistle and no water ingress. The mesh I use stops water getting in, granted it would be better if open but not worth the grief it could cause. What it needs is a switchable gate, meshed/open to suit weather and driving conditions. :hmmm: now there's a thought!

You use a mesh Mick? got any more info budday?
|
Done as a trial and stayed!
