I have got a mk2 engine in mine al running and on the road but it's currently only using a pod filter!! tried to rout it to the stick airbox but failed due to the air flow meter.. what have other people done? any help greatly appreciated and I want to be able to go thru water an mud without having to drive around it lol.. have searched and didn't find anything the gave me any pics or good info cheers |

I'm in the same boat. Here's a few ideas I've seen. I don't know what this filter housing is from:  And this is messy but it works (I guess):  I think I've seen a pic of the AFM grafted into the top of the Sierra filter. I might look into that. But I suspect I'll end up making a custom housing (especially if I want a snorkel). |

yea top is a gti but they aren't easy to get hold of, I have one on mine as when I was running a gti I needed it to clear defect but this other one I built I'm trying to find a way around sourcing another gti box.. also tried the flexy pipe stuff but I found it would keep splitting around the hose clamps :/ |
