Btw, that dyno graph. Ignore the torque spike as standard. Dyno threw a wobbler at us, subsequent runs did not show this. That was my best stock run vs my best run with airbox and 98RON



WTF is the pic so small?

Bollox

Is the mounting adjustable mate? Not sure if that would hit my strut brace as it looks to be higher than the top of the engine.

wait here while i go outside and check

I have just decided to keep the CTR.

Maybe I should now put a few pennies to one side.

My lad is 18 in July - Happy Birthday Son. 8)

My CTR will be 2 in September - Happy Birthday Baby.

Have you got the fitting instructions available (in PDF, whatever) just to see how everything fits together etc..

[Paul-CTR]

andycole it does sit higher then the engine. The fixing is not adjustable.

[Paul-CTR]

No instructions avaliable yet but its a piece of piss to fit. Just need to move the fusebox a little bit to get the airhose in then once thats in clip the fusebox back into place.

Damn my ctr looks quite nice in those pics 8)

[scousefella]

I assume the price includes filter. 8)

Driving impressions are a lil strange. Only the driver will be able to feel the VTEC crossover. Car feels so smooth and throttle response is excellent its almost as if i had the hondata back on.

The car is loving it!

A group buy? TBH the filter hasn't even hit the streets and the airbox cost alot of wonger to develop. Im not sure Stuart would be willing to discount them. BUT... If we can get an firm order of 10 buyers together then I am sure we could sort something out. I will send ITG an email about it.

Its a pity about the mounting though, kit looks good, however was going to fit a DC sports strut brace and looks like there will be a conflict of interests!!

Following your review I think 10 buyers would be an understatement!!!!

Rofl this filter is really the bollox imo. Gives amazing gains, looks sexy and fits like it should have been in there from the factory. Quality is first rate.

I stuck my neck out yesterday by saying ITG will need to up their production very quickly because these babies are going to fly out the factory. I think Stuart told me he can only produce 10 at a time or something like that. Something to do with a contractors called matrix? Being small they can't produce mass volume.

Look at that graph though, look at the gains before and after VTEC. Thats arguably more then what some of those ecus can give you.

You could be right there, Im not 100% for certain a strut won't fit but the airbox is quite large in circumference, larger then the gruppem i had, so it would be very very tight.

[Jocelyn Hills]

I think the filter assy looks good - but the cold air pipe looks a bit of a mess! The Gruppe M is still the best looking IMO.

Sorry mate - I agree the results are very good - but the Gruppe M gives similar if not better results and looks better so I'll be sticking by it!

[boobster]

This looks fantastic. Got a normal ITG replacement filter in the OEM airbox and i noticed a little difference.

I think these type of gains will be well worth it. Time to save some pennies!!!!

Fair dos mate, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I have yet to see any GruppeM dynos with a standard car though.
