STANDARD AIRBOX FOR ELISE

Post by zip » Wed Jun 17, 2009 8:22 pm

Does anyone happen to have a standard airbox for an Elise that they do not need or want ? I have just changed cars and the 2002 111S that I now have does not have the standard airbix fitted as someone has taken it off and replaced it with some sort of foam filter ? There is something that looks like it might be the standard box whcxih has been tucked away inside the rear off side (passanger) wing but I'm not sure. Perhaps I need to c heck to see what a standard one looks like ?

I have one, but sounds like you might already have it stil there and just need the connecting pipe. I have one of them too.

Just thinking it's likely to be the resonator box if it's a 111S? Most foam filter kits would sit right where the standard airbox would sit.

Yeah, good point Shug. I have often seen K&Ns installed with the bottom half of the airbox left in place but not the whole thing.

Anyway, I have one if you want it. :thumbsup

Will definitely be the resonator box up behind the rear wheelarch. You will need a specific 111S airbox if you want to be 100% original and use the resonator. 111S airbox is bigger and has two inlets - one pipe going to the resonator. Brackets may be a bit different if fitting a std airbox...

I have the resonator box, fittings and original airbox with filter, that I've just taken off my 2003 111s. I'm in Aberdeen (Methlick), You're welcome to whatever you want.

Hi Rob

I sent a message earlier but being fairly new to this game I am not sure where it went ? Sounds like you have all the bits so I would be interested, but I do arrange this from here ?
