Typhoon Cai - Removing Standard Setup

[MKIIXR6T]

Hey Guys,

I installed a new CAI on my T. I have the bottom half of the airbox cut out and have the APS intake piece now getting air from under the headlight. Ive totally removed the stock intake setup via the snorkle which bolted down on the front of the car. Ive seen a few blokes using a dual setup which leaves the stock intake and adds just the Typhoon setup. I would have thought the stock intake is grabbing hot air from the engine bay. Is it worth having both or is running the Typhoon intake only enough?

Curious on your thoughts....

If you look at the underside of your bonnet you can see that the standard Falcon air intake area is isolated from the rest of the engine bay, and thus from a supply of hot air, by a rubber seal on the bonnet.

Both the standard air intake and the FPV 2nd air intake access unheated external high pressure air.

Regards,

Wouldnt removing this snorkel leave a bloody big hole in the airbox and then cause you to injest hot engine bay air

id prefer both inlets. leave the top one as is and install either the 4' hose or the typhoon style CAI on the bottom.

wouldnt removing the top intake negate any gaine from the 2cai?

you ad the 2cai to increase the overall size of the air intake dont you.
