noise problem
froggy - 5/9/09 at 10:21 PM

not an sva issue but my car made 112db at oulton last week which im sure is induction related , my only option now is to fit the air boxes that fit over the pipercross 600 filters im using but having two engines means its going to cost me nearly £400 to do it . do these ducted covers reduce induction noise ??

I made my own `copy` of the Pipercross airbox when I ran a crossflow , and it reduced induction noise by a massive amount .

It is in one piece - but the mold is in two parts , bolted together .

how easy is carbon to work with? i'll need to make something like that for my car, but have no expericnce in carbon (or really fibreglass for that matter)
i'd probably be looking for something exactly like that for zx9r carbs

how much did it cost to make? what size is it? have you still got the molds? and finally, would you like to make me one some time?
