I've also read sowhere else (mind you, this was on the internet, so I'm not taking it anywhere near 100% accurate), that the Gruppe M takes most of it's air through the side opening in the engine bay, and that the cowl port isn't that big at all.<<That I can absolutely believe.
Gruppe M's intake for the Euro Type R is completely different than the one for the FD2. I'm still undecided on the Euro intake. It can be seen in the thread posted below:
FN2 GruppeM - Civinfo
I actually prefer the airbox for the Euro R, because it looks a lot more functional than the FD2 airbox. It's just the method Gruppe M uses to scoop the air for the Euro box, that I'm not 100% sold on. |
Well said Matt, my alter-ego. We have been conjoined in the mind. We are one.
