Hi

Just ordered an ARC intake off of ebay for when my 7 is back from its rebuild. Searched the forums/google before posting but couldnt find anything. Does anyone have any sort of fitting instructions, or can anyone otherwise point me in the right direction regarding what I'm trying to do...

Currently have a pretty rubbish HKS super mega flow hot air intake or whatever its called.... two metal pipes to two foam filters. A true triumph in engineering. Anyway looking to fit this new old ARC box, which would be straightforward in itself if it wasnt for the aftermarket kit I have. I'm not sure what intake pipes I will have to buy that were removed or changed for the HKS kit.

Can anyone inform me what pipes are needed? Or if the HKS metal pipes will fit to the back of the ARC box? I think I may need to buy a load of pipes to get this to fit.

Heres a photo I found on my phone of the intake kit when I was working out what I could fit. Yes the filters are disgusting!!

Looks like the pipes are about the right length... Would be fab if you could snap a photo of top down like in my photo if it's not a hassle, it would be a great help:)

Obviously I'd bin off the curved metal pipes that the filter attaches to, but the blue hose bits look like they'll attach on the back just fine...
 
Of the hks pipes don't fit (which I imagine the won't. You can buy the pipes you need in aluminium on ebay. Just standard replacements

I wasnt sure if the aluminium pipes on ebay were the ones in my 7 or not, but yeah at least it wont be expensive.

Picked up the 7 from the engine rebuild this morning, will have a go on monday and see if the box fits or not :)
