Agg gti conversion, what airbox are you using?

[Cyrus]

There seems to be a few people converting to agg or gti engines at the moment.
What air boxes are everyone using?
Garyd's bible uses a 206 one but not sure of what year engine size etc.
Would the original golf one fit being lh lights?
Cheers.

At the moment I have a Hyundai Getz airbox sat in the battery tray, it's okay but the intake is quite small and may restrict the airflow (although the bus will do 170kmh).

I plan on fitting a Mazda 323F airbox in the left hand void, these filters get a good report on the German VW forums.
You have to slightly modify the LMM housing for clearance.

Which year and what cc is the 323 f? I'll have a search.

Do you know the size on the intake pipe? I'm thinking 76mm for some reason.

[Titus A Duxass]

Off the top of my head no but 76mm feels about right.
I can't remember what year, I'll have a look this evening.

reviving this old thread - did you fit the airbox? i have taken a look at the void in front of the left hand rear light - it looks doable but how do you change the air filter once it is in situ? Looks like you would have to remove the top of the engine.

aha - just found the answer on another forum.... it looks like you have moved on from the Mazda set up. I will keep researching.

Used a dg air filter box

This set used the standard agg air filter to maf pipe which in the standard (as if it was in a golf) orientation so it picks up the crack case breather.

The same agg pipe is fitted to the dg air filter box and routs perfectly I have then used a 76mm peice of alloy tube (150mm long)and then a 76mm i/d silacone hose to join to the maf I have prepaired the old crank case vent spigot to accept the air temp sender

Finally because the converted van was a n/a diesel it came with a neat pre filter so the air box was connected to it via a section of 63 i/d silacone hose.
I am hoping for very low intake noises with this set up.
