Default HMAFA - Home Made Air Filter Adapter!

Thought you guys would get a laugh out of this.
Had to cobble it together for my MOT as the stainless one I ordered didn't appear in time. 20 mins with a saw, glue, and a biro created this mighty part!





No, it aint for sale. :P

WTF am I looking at? Is that made out of wood? Are you seriously going to use that?

I think I get it... its so you can attach the filter on the end of it... and the wood gets bolted onto the turbo's intake...

its one of those weird turbos with bolt holes and ---- huh... what kinda turbo is it going on... and good luck with it holding up

not that bad of an idea... actually quite clever when you think about it.

Holy ---- my POS pictures have stopped working!! Damn!
Yeah I did drive around with it on and managed to pass the MOT with it. I coated it with PVA glue so no wood shavings came off it.
The air filter bolts on to the wide end (for those who saw it) and the other end gets a bit of hose on it, which then attaches to my intake.
But no more, 'cos the right part turned up so I can chuck this in the bin!
Sorry, don't know WTF is up with the pics. They decided to crap out on me 'cos the part was just too nasty! :P
