As Mike says, run ducting from grill to CAI and/or brakes.

Pic of mine fitted in the above post, removed pic and engine bay pic below. Remove fog light to fit as its too tight then after ducting put into place then refit fog light.

Thank you for the link, are they a good fit?

Hi , I've just bought some open grilles off of eBay £19.80 delivered are a perfect fit and in my opinion look a lot better than standard ones. Jut got to get some ducting to my filter now.  :happy2:

i should imagine that you can pick up that sort of piping from B&Q and the likes. Good find though. I quite like this mod, although am not running a CAI just yet.

Reason I asked is I've been to B&Q and Homebase, literally nothing that will work, looked for ducting / pipework in electrical and plumbing.

Ok cheers Dan, I will just take a chance on something off ebay, hopefully it's not too wide etc.

Get some ducting from ebay. I used RAM AIR ducting 100mm x 1000mm. I also used a air funnel (see build thread), also ebay and same size or VERY close in size will be fine.

Remove fog light to allow access and slightly squash tubing to fit....job done.

Thanks man, that's pretty much what I've ordered. I went with the 80mm x 500mm, hopefully it's just about long enough!

Quick Thursday evening mod. Just about long enough. Went for a spin and I actually think it helps the Revo CAI breath hidden behind the front light.
