Carbon canister relocation with CAI

Recommended Posts

Just installed my CAI, and had been pondering at some length where to relocate the CC. After a bit of a poke around in the engine bay, I found by far the best solution is to relocate it under the MAF. It fits perfectly underneath, and I just cable-tied it into position nest to the driver's side strut. Took about 2 minutes :D

Storm, afraid I don't have a dig camera- I'll try to borrow one.

 

Kev, yeh, doesn't seem to happen very often so nice when it does! :)

Erm, sorry to dig this up but what did you cable tie it to? Have you got a digi cam yet? It being more than 1 year on from the last post? :p

Hahahaha, WOOHOO!!!

 

I always use the search, but sometimes either I cant search or it doesnt bring up what I need it to.

 

Anyway, how many gold stars before I get a crown?

is it sitting horizontally, or vertically? I was under the impression, that it wont work properly if not seated upright.

Dr Forinor, as it's soooo long ago, and that car is long gone, I can't remember what I cable tied it too! Just have a look around in that vicinity- it may have been one of those hook things that the airbox is attached to.

 

vdubjb, it was horizontal. Didn't have any probs with it.

Thanks KADVR6, that's pretty much where mine was, although I think mine was pushed slightly further back under the MAF.

But thats the thing, I was thinking of putting it there too but then I couldnt figure out what to cable tie it to, maybe I just wasnt lookin hard enough?
