Ahmotorsport Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) I thought so, i don't tend to read, i just look and i assumed you were putting a new one in. Is there a reason why you're binning it? Genuine question. Also i see, by the looks of it you struggled xD i don't know if it's anything like the Quattro, but on that the top part of the slam panel is removable.

It was in poor condition and it greatly restricts airflow to the motor. Others that removed it reported lower oil and coolant temps, even on track days, when compared to having the aux rad in place It's also a potential place for the relocation of the oil cooler, if necessary I saw it could be pulled off with a few bolts and 2 tack welds, but I figured since I was binning it anyway I'd leave the tacks in place as it shows how straight and original the car is.

Aye the oil cooler is in a weird place! Ahh fair enough then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidrick Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 The airbox was one of the few things changed between the 3B engine and the later ABY to give the motor an extra 10bhp, so I bought one. The fcuking size of the thing! http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p89/adolftitler/temporary-3.jpg Should have a decent update if the timing belt goes ahead on Saturday.
