More blower noise
#281
Seems like Mina, Kazcorp, Velocity AP to name but a few, have looked at the feasibility of producing post MAF tubing, but no one seems to want to take the 'bull by the horns'...guess it boils down to cost and potential low sales volume?
Maybe it will take a 'Group Buy' to get the ball rolling?
Thoughts....?

Our main issue: We need a car in shop to remove the entire system and fabricate from scratch. Being the system is plastic and has flex, sending in cores to mock up will not work(creates huge fitment issues). If we get our hands on a F-Type 3.0/5.0, we could design that kit BUT that "kit" would not fit anything else. Ex: The 3.0 F-Type system will NOT fit a 5.0 F-Type system. So each model/engine platform would need to roll through our shop doors to design (same goes for a 3.0 F-Type to a 3.0 XE, XF, XJ..etc, most of all are different).
Sooooo, if anyone is willing to send us their ride, we'll design the kit

Has zero relation to cost..the market is present and it'll sell!!

I had a great laugh... first time I ever read of Kazcorp and you grouped it with real companies.
I gave drawing and dimensions in the past to a few people in the group to make their own intake silencer deletes, there is no point making them commercially for a $70.00 kit and looking at $10.00 each in profit for maybe... 10 units?

Well..not many ppl willingly jump on the wagon to drive an F-Type in good old Canadian Winter.

I've looked into this thoroughly and the F-Type 3.0+5.0 systems do share some parts, but not all.

The Y Pipe in front of the throttle body is part # C2D23239 (same on both)
What your research failed to highlight is that the AWD and RWD (Not V6and V8) are very slightly different but one developed for AWD fits RWD quite well if you leave allowances for about 5mm on two couplers per side... I guess owning the two models helps greatly ;-) And, your you are welcome ;-)

If anybody is interested in a complete replacement that will produce significant more blower noise, I have created a solution. I am a small one man show so I can't produce anything commercially tho .
I have a few videos available on a facebook group. I'm not sure the rules on sharing the group so I will not until and admin can clarify that for me.

Yes, from over this side of the pond, but I'm not a Faceplant goer.

ignore the first half of that, looked it up -- way too far from me right now -- second half still stands, maybe someone else would be willing to part with their car for a few weeks.

The Whipple is inherently a noisy/whiny supercharger while the Eaton TVS was specifically designed to be quiet.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Most of this thread was going over my head.
Found this kit https://www.fosterscmods.com/products/new-sku-246
Probably mentioned elsewhere in the forum but they make kits for other supercharged cars like some Mustangs. Basically it's a hose that connects from the inlet MAF housing to the firewall in the cabin. Holes are drilled to achieve this. It's a little of a janky ghetto setup but the result is basically direct whine coming into the cabin.
I am inclined to try this install. I know Sal's garage has done the install too.
I do want a mod that would increase whine on the outside too though because from what I understand this shouldn't affect the noise from the outside. Maybe like 2% because it is creating another outlet.

I think the yellow wolf intake was more effective at bringing out the whine than Mina. Someone at Mina also mentioned that there are a few silencers in the upper intake system too so replacing that will bring more whine. Only problem is doing so will not be able to install the hose mod I linked above which will definitely bring more whine in the cabin.
