you can't really see much if i just take a pic of it from above.. and i dun wanna take it out cuz its really oily.. have to oil it to work properly ma..

but if you are not using AFM then you dun need it anyway. if you insist on a pic then i'll see when can i get hold of a camara.. din own one.. have to borrow.

i drive a 1996 tiara..i heard that the air filter need to custom one if you want to put the aftermarket funnel type..that means the stock airbox have to throw away...

 

[bobo]

aiks.. last time my satria also i throw away the stock air box mer..
u want the open port or the normal wan which u just drop in??

 

[weikhee86]

i want the type got filter in front then terus sambung to the intake type..it that called open pod?

Bro. all type of air intake for NA is starting from air filter to air intake pipe then to the throttle body.

The difference is the type of air filter u use. there are 2 types of air filter open pod and panel filter.

Open pod is those like HKS Super Flow, Apexi dual funnel etc...it has the shape of a cone (K&N) or mushroom (HKS)...

Panel filter is a direct replacement filter that fits ur's original filter box. You just take out the original paper filter and replaced it with K&N, HKS, Apexi..etc..i think K&N has the widest range of panel filter...

i dont understand what he said.:_: sorry.

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

panel filter = drop-in filter elements....

 

[Fluffy]

ah,okay..:_: good way to start a good intake mod.

but dont go doing an air ram.no point.unless u'll be flooring all the ways and u run about 100++km/h all the time.

 

[rollakid]

my first intake mod: cabut air filter after a big rain and go out zoom zoom around lolx.. useful only on rainy season where the air is cleaner most of the time.

 

[TitanRev]

Rollakid, do you know after rain there's lots of frog...don't scared after a frog get suck into ur throttle body ?? then every time u tekan your throttle will have the frog sound....Guaaaaaa......Guaaaaa.....Muahahaha
