The box is mostly heat shielding in the area you'd dent... You want a closed box, so care to ensure it seals up well enough is helpful. The filter is on the intake tube, so the box doesn't need to be airtight.
I mean, that still sucks but if it's just the performance you want... |

Decay107 posted pictures of the clearance between the oil cooler and the airbox, and ultimately decided to get rid of the airbox. Here is the clearance: So it's close. a little clearance can be gained from moving the sandwich plate a small amount counterclockwise, and a little clearance can be gained from when you tighten down the mounting bolts for the airbox by adjusting it clockwise. More clearance can be gained from denting the airbox, but since we havent tried this ourselves, we are not 100% on how much. But since this was the end result, i think it really only needs to be clearanced a small amount. Let us know what you go with and we can work with you to develop a solution, witht he forester cooler probably being a no-mods-necessary-slam-dunk. Quote:

Any chance getting that intake to meet German legal restrictions? Don't think the "TÜV" likes it :-/

I love my gimmspeed intake, but this does make me a bit nervous about getting the Mishimoto oil cooler. Hopefully the clearance won't be an issue.
Does anyone have that combination that can comment?

I don't have specifics, but it takes a lot of time, effort and money to attain TUV certification. Don't get your hopes up.

I had a short mail conversation with RHD Speedmaster about TÜV. That is a shop known by most German JDM fans in terms of TÜV, legality checks and stuff.
They said they could make that but 280€ "special check" combined with additional 120€ for dyno run. That plus the price of the intake itself... Pew... way too much sadly :-/ |

Hey @GrimmSpeed so I got my intake installed yesterday; only had one challenge (other than doing the install outside in 8°F temps): the worm clamp for the front of the flex coupler (to the intake pipe) ate itself when I was tightening it down. Luckily I had spares from my prior setup. Man I hate those damn clamps...
I threw the OFT tune in and went for a drive and everything was good. Spring needs to spring so I can go have some fun now.

Our welders just finished a MASSIVE batch of intakes and they're off to powdercoating. You guys are buying them faster than we can get them back on the shelves. Who else has been enjoying the warmer weather and dry roads? |
