Does anyone know of someone who builds custom high flow air boxes using panel or barrel type filters.

Cheers

Allot of the comp guys are running the Patroldoctor box with the snorkel through the bonnet. Looks wicked.

Hey Ben,

I have the PatrolDocta ZD type airbox on my GQ and I am really happy with it.

It has 4" inlet and 4" outlet to the turbo, seems to breath really well, I also run a K&N filter in it. And have a ryco paper type for when the K&N needs a clean and dry.

It's made from all stainless and sits nicely under the bonnet.

Winnie,

I don't know if they changed the size of the inlets and outlets but I know mine are 4"/100mm because of the silicon fittings I had to chase up for it.

Thanks for your input everyone
Well I rang fatz fab today, they are going to send me some pictures or one in a gq
Ill ring millweld and try to get some flow figures and see if it will suit.

Mark, I would go for the one you have for fitment etc, but it dosnt actually flow enough to suit my application, I need something much bigger
Cheers

That's what I got too. My old Zd30 box was leaking and just got one of these due to the snorkel position and limited room under ze hood.

Look forward to seeing your beast when It's all done though Benny!!!

G'day Trendsetters,

After fitting the new 18G billet wheel Kinugawa turbo set-up.I am now back to square one regarding air in take issues.

The new set-up is collapsing the intake hoses again. The current set-up worked fine with the UFI TDO5 16G turbo set-up, however, the more powerful Kinugawa turbo set-up requires more air-flow.

PS, i will keep you all informed of my research.
