AFAIK CAI hands down with regards to performance. Risk lang ang hydrolock. Tho may bypass valve may ibang vlaims na mababawasan gains. Kaya ako try ko nalang both.

That's true. Nakakatakot ang CAI sa mga biglang ulan lately. Nakakabawas nga ang bypass valve, though if the tube and valve are positioned properly, baka laban pa din sa typhoon kit. Para kasing ang layo ng typhoon kit sa pagkukuhanan ng hangin, kaya ako napapaisip.

Have you tried the Simota kit? It looks similar to this, position-wise as well, though this one is on a GD:


The Fit is fortunate to have the exhaust at the back of the engine, kaya bawas init and i would assume not as prone to heat soak.

Yey! okay na oto ko. pwede na daw kunin.

Congrats bro!

Out of curiosity for those who've tried or those who've done the research, maganda ba ang pinagkukuhanan ng hangin ng Typhoon kit? True it's isolated from much of the engine bay hence less heat, but would there be much airflow in that part of the engine bay?


Again, pardon the ignorance. I don't mean to step on anyone's toes (or installs) here. Just an ignorant question.

Thanks.

IMHO, yung position ng typhoon kit is actually correct, though not much gains unlike CAI ofcourse. yung lugar kase kung saan ang typhoon kit may air passage papunta doon, check your hood, your grill, and dun sa may radiator, makikita mo may daanan talaga ng hangin doon from the grill papunta sa hood, then may nakalagay din sa hood na dadaanan ng hangin papunta sa air intake, stock or typhoon kit, basta yung lugar na yon may pumapasok talagang hangin, this will only happen of course pag nasa highway ka, and ofcourse may init parin nanggagaling sa engine. yung simota naman problem don is kumukuha sya ng mainit na hanging from the radiator itself,,

IMm29, tama si idol Jay, meron parang scoop kasi na plastic yung ilalim ng hood where ang bagsak nito is kung saan naka-pwesto yung intake mismo... and with the "heat shield" and mas malayo sa engine, mas less likely the intake gets hot air

and i think sa lahat ng intake, K&N lang talaga ang naka-pwesto ng ganyan...

[krm]

in defense sa CAI kelangan completely submerged yung filter bago mag hydrolock, so kahit mabasa sya ok lang. At 1ft of water submerged na siguro yung cone saka palang sya mag hydrolck, in which case pwede mo detach young tube from the mass air sensor to the tube going down to the pipe kung kelangan mo talaga ilusong. Pero either way bass na interior mo at that depth at sira na rin foglamps mo if any dahil lubog na rin sya so di naman siguro ganun kalaking risk.

Sa bypass valve same rin lang function at may claims rin na hindi gumagana, kaya ako dun nalang ako sa DIY na tang gal tube kung alanganin na yung tubig kaysa sugal ko pa sa bypass valve. Ganun rin eh, kung basa yung foam ng bypass valve papasok pa rin tubig hehehe

Honestly, I think so too. Hmmmmn. Para ma maximize yung knn typhoon intake, pede kaya palakihan yung scoop na nasa front grill or pa-customize. Tapos, sabay hatid yung cold air from the front grill, then yung sa may hood na daan, derecho sa knn cone. pasensya na, nag-iimagine lang.

Ah i see. So there's some wind re-routing toward the back of the engine bay. Nice. Learned something new today. Thanks!

As to the Simota, true it will get some hotter wind from the radiator, but at least there's no exhaust to think of anymore, what with the engine's design. Would've been nice to get a ram air duct from behind the grille into the filter though.

O nga. Nakakatakot nga ang flash flood jan sa CAI. It does go pretty low, and it's exposed from the underside. At least you are going to be more conscious about wading -- if you really want to, that is -- especially as your fogs go pretty low as well, kaya there's a risk of getting a "fish tank" in the fog lamp housings if you're not careful.

On some other installs, the filter head is hidden behind the bumper and the bumper liner on one side, plus the tube is more vertical such that the cone is likewise vertical although with the head downward. Not sure how much a diff that makes on performance, and on wading capacity though.

But your CAI must make one helluva throaty growl.

buknoi29, kunin mo na lang yun CAI ni boss Mike (krm)

boss Ben, meron GT mamaya sa may GH, malapit sa Xavier/ICA, along Ortigas Ave. lang, punta ka!

Sir pao, sensya na Di ako makasama sa mga GT, panggabi na kasi ako. Kakabanas

[buknoi29]

kakatakot kasi hydrolock sa CAI. pwede ba sayo paorder ng typhoon sir pao hehe kelan dadating relative mo from US? confirmed na ba?

[krm]

The cone itself is under the splash guard to technically inside the front bumper parin. It wont get wet even running in the rain, already tested this. The photo was taken during install so the splash guard is not shown in the photo tho it is covered. If it isn't negated rin ang CAI due to air being heated by the asphalt.

Yung typhoon kasi is more of a SRI. Just ordered mine so i guess i'll find out soon enough which suits me needs more. But for sure iba grwol ng CAI

Sa wakas nakuha ko na din ang GE ko!
Pero may problem, kanina tinry ko sagarin sa nlex kaso hanggang 135kph nalang sya, di ko alam bt ganun.
E dati naman pagkalabas na pagkalabas nun sa casa napaandar ko agad sya ng 140. Yung arangkada nya hindi nagbago, in fact lumakas pa nga e. Pero sa dulo nawawala na yung hila nya.

ano nangyayari kapag nag-130 kph ka na? naglilimiter?

naku poh! balik mo na kagad boss, nagkandaloko loko na limiter. may kilala ako na ganyan, nabaha GE nya, after ma ayos hanggang 140kph nalang, then pina ayos ulit, naging 160kph, nung ikatlong ayos nawala na limiter, kaya kanya pinakamabilis na stock GE so far dito sa pinas. eheheh!

[john5]

nice to see you imogen,timzzzster,jerome and the rest of ge peeps!

[bayen]

Nice to have my ride back to normal. Everything all fixed. Chin back to normal. Awesome!

[Troy Inovero]

Nung thursday nag lilimiter sa 135kph. Kanina napaabot ko na ng 140kph. Pero ang hina ng 4th gear ko. Yung 1st to 3rd gear ko ang lakas. Pagdating ng 4th gear wala ng hatak.

[Troy Inovero]

Pinalitan nila yung bumper at chin mo? Parang di ka nabangga e.

Sabe na e, limiter ang may problema. Pagdating ng rektahan humihina ang hatak pero sa arangkada ang lakas lakas naman.
Gano kaya katagal nila gagawin yun? And pwede ba irequest ko na tanggalin nalang yung limiter? Para masaya.
Ano top speed ng GE nung kakilala mo? Sarap nun walang limiter. :D

Ganda pagkagawa :2thumbsup:
Magkano participation mo paps?
