Engine cover to fit around ITG Maxogen
« on: August 01, 2011, 08:36:31 pm »
Hey guys,

Im soon going to be purchasing an ITG maxogen in a couple months time but as I've found out by trolling these forums the original engine cover of my mk5 gti will not fit back.  Some say I could cut it up to fit but I'm wondering if there is a cover I could buy ready to fit right into place as I'm not to keen on chopping things up.

Cheers

Evolution Motorsport (EVOMs) produce a cover to fit with their intake,  I would guess it would work with ITG.  Its not cheap though at around 80 quid......

EDIT:  Just found it on the JKM website - make that £95 + VAT  :scared:



TBH, I would use the engine cover you have or source a 2nd hand one from ebay, they are quite straight forward to modify.  Alternatively ditch the engine cover entirely I think it looks ok without it.  :happy2:



Just another thought, I could measure mine and give you dimensions, then maybe a metal fabricator could knock you one up, I'm sure it will be a lot cheaper than buying a custom one.
