Here are some pics from 02NFR on his recent OEM Airbox Insulation Project.

Materials used:

-On box sides,bottom,front: Reflectix foil/bubble wrap/foil
-On corner chamber of box and intake tube: Reflectix foil tape







Thanks a lot 02NFR for sharing your project with everyone!

 

Looks good, I wonder if you could insulate it with some sort of paint.

Thank you Zeniac for posting these pictures. I've been very pleased with the results of this little project. No matter how hot the engine bay is after spirited driving, the inside of the intake box stays nice and cool.

Glagola1... huh? I'm not following ["Need a new hobby?]

I'm not sure why the photos do not show up for some, PM me with your e-mail address and I can send you the photos.

 

hey im just wondering if you put the heat wrap under the air box also ?

 

Sarcasm. For all the effort put into it, and sacrificed looks, a net gain of 2hp will be realized...
