J's Intake and RBC

Quick update.

There are quite a few teething problems making the J's induction kit and RBC fit together:

• Inducion hose - You cannot use any off the shelf induction hose to mate up the throttle body and intake pipe. You can modify one and force it to fit but it puts too much stress on the air box. Tom was definitely not happy with this so he's asked one of his contacts to make up a custom one which will hopefully be spun up on Monday. 
• Aircon pipe - when fitting a RBC, you would typically move and remount the aircon pipe to the right. There is absolutely no way you can do this with the J's airbox in the way. A custom pipe will be needed that's more flexible. For the time being, Tom has de-gassed/blocked off the aircon, and taken the pipe off.
• Sensor cables extended - due to lack of room around the airbox and RBC

Note, if we had kept the PRC inlet manifold on, everything would have fitted perfectly. We're breaking new ground here (in terms of fitment) in the UK and I'm glad it's in Tom's hands as he doesn't compromise on quality of work.

Anyway some photos

What I probably haven't mentioned before is that I have gone with full J's Racing breathing mods which would encompass the following:

• J's Racing carbon fibre Tsuchinoko intake (as above)
• J's Racing 4-2 Manifold
• J's Racing 2-1 Decat
• J's Racing C304 60RS exhaust
• And of course the RBC inlet manifold port matched to a true 70mm throttle body (not J's Racing)

The car wasn't on the ramps so I couldn't snap any full on pictures but I could of course take a few :)
