Hi mate, a little water in there is not a prob (i.e rain water when driving), when standing it wont be a prob as it will slope downwards with the bonnet.

I will be drilling a drain hole into the bottom of the airbox (facing the back of the bay) to allow any bigger ammount of water that gets in to drain out

Mate this is going to look seriously nice, would you be able to put up a how to once you have done and let us all know where you got everything from and how much, i want to try having a go at something like this.

Glad you've thought of that. At Knockhill when it rains which is more often than not, your driving in alot of spray if your following someone. The duct should help the induction note aswell

Spray is fine pal, the arch feed on mine used to suck up alot of it!! A fine mist of water is OK, big amount of it though, would be bad!!

Ohhh you need to have a day at Knockers...it's not spray mate :lol: its a whole lotta water, the fastest wiper setting sometimes isnt enough

 

[kevo66 (weaveworx)]

Well its on....

We went for a slanted fit as the light/bonnet slant and TBH Im not sure at all!! SO long as it works thats all that matters though to me! Still.... wish we had mounted it straight, meh....

Need my ducting to direct the air though, unless I move the ecu bracket, then it will line straight up!!

[kevo66 (weaveworx)]
