ITG Induction Kit - Elise S1

[Cryssys]

My recently purchased 111S is fitted with an ITG induction kit but the air intake is still inside the (hot) engine bay. Is this typical as I expected it to have a duct to the outside? Whilst airflow undoubtedly improved it's still pulling in hot air which sort of negates one of the benefits, i.e. to draw in cooler air from outside the engine bay.

My other worry is noise levels as the car also has a 2bular exhaust. It's a bit loud and I'm concerned about it exceeding track day limits.

I'd appreciate any thoughts or comments from others who have similar set ups regarding how they impacted noise levels and possibly mitigated them.

Thanks for that. At first glance the top end looks very similar but mine is definitely not connected to the passenger airbox. It terminates low down in the engine bay.

I would send photos but the car is in for a few days for a cambelt change and a bit of recommissioning as it's not done many miles in the last 2-3 years.

Like a carbon trumpet where a flexi joins and runs to the passenger inlet pod.

Mine is definitely missing the final connection to the inlet pod. Currently It terminates at the end of the trumpet, low down in the engine bay. I've got a box of bits that came with the car so will rummage around and see if I can find it. If not, I'll have to contact ITG or scour the internet.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. You've been very helpful and it's appreciated.

Got your email thanks. As mentioned further up the thread my kit is missing the connection between the trumpet and the air inlet. The image posted by Tickle shows a flexible connection from the trumpet to the air inlet, mine doesn't have this and just terminates at the trumpet.

Will try and post a picture tomorrow.
