ACoA is now organising a GROUP BUY for the air splitter plate

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Air Splitter Plate - based on the ProLex item

Price is $100 (or $125 NON MEMBERS)

Price quoted does not include postage - shipping within Australia will cost an additional $10.00.

The air splitter plate is designed to increase the amount of air flow into the stock intake. The plates are made out of aircraft grade aluminium and will be finished with an aldine coating. Better quality then the ProLex items people!
The plate secures in place using existing bolts on the car, and some 3M tape under the lip.

The plates come in two designs - one with an air hole to allow air up from the radiator, and one without. Much of a muchness, but it is advised that those who have or intend to have forced induction engines, (which require an intercooler) should use the closed type, while NA setups should use the open type.

There are 8 of these plates on order - half are the NA design, with induction holes, and half are the 'turbo' design, without holes. Either is appropriate for a standard IS.

STOCK:
No holes - 2 left
Holes - 1 left

Pls PM me for any details on this product.
All figures quoted are in AUD$ ...

These images show the 'closed' type air splitter plate. For those that want less hot air in their intake, or for those with turbocharged or supercharged setups, this is the recommended style.

This is the open type (as seen on Edwin's car). Please note that the 'open type' ACoA air splitter plate will not look EXACTLY like this one, this is the ProLex item on which our plate is based.

one for me !!!!! :D
hmm.. open or closed ...

does it include tte supercharger ? :P

Do these things REALLY make a difference? :huh: e.g. Torque, Hp - anything noticeable?

Haven't dyno'd one yet... like the ground wires being discussed in another thread, i think it's more the principal of the thing that appeals! Those I have spoken to suggest that improves consumption around town since your getting less hot air coming up from the radiator. Certainly though, it improves the intake of cool air into the stock system, whereas an aftermarket pod can often simply increase the amount of HOT air going in.
I'm planning to stick with the stock intake on my car regardless of what mods i do to the engine down the track, so anything that improves the functionality of the stock intake sounds good to me!

ok Matt,

Yeah get me one as well. Make it chrome or silver finish. lol

UPDATE

The plates are now in! I will put pics up this evening. Please contact myself or FLEX to arrange pick up/delivery.

PICS are up.
Payment may be made COD (Cash On Delivery) or through the club account.

May I ask what's the purpose of having those holes for open type?

thanks

Allows additional cool air to flow up into the intake.

*bump* 3 of each left.

ohh damn, never saw these, ill take one Matt. Its just a cosmetic thing for me hehe.

Bumpity. Only 2 with holes left.

Shane - if your coming on Friday night, do you want me to bring one for you then?

Matt can you get hold of one in carbon fibre?

Brett, if you are after it because of lightness then this is comparable if not lighter than carbon fibre. it is made from aircraft grade aluminium!!

No I actually have alot of polished alloy under the bonnet, Radiator, Custom fan cover rocker covers, Intake Manifold, turbo housing,water pump, all piping and braided lines. Just like to break it up at the front as I think it might be to much leading into the radiator.


I plan on hiding a lot of things in the engine bay with carbon. But talking about ligher, I heard you had a carbon bonnet. Do you have a pic posted anywhere? Could you let me know what it looks like. I'm after one with a vent, I think its Serrans bonnet I saw (I like it) where did he get that from?

Sorry for hi-jacking. I'll hunt Serran down and ask him.

The plates have an aldine coating, so they can be painted. In all seriousness, this would probably double the weight of the plate - they weigh next too nothing.

1 left with holes, 3 without.

I'll take a no holes version.
Was going to make one up but I see someone has done the hard work already.

Graham D

Can someone used this product give us some feedback?

I'll have mine on soon. Will report back then. As i said before, there may be a perciptable difference on a dyno, but as far as bum on seat is concerened, not sure how much you will feel.
Graham - check your email.

Sorry to dig up an old thread but just recently got into the modifying mindset.

Are these still available?

1 left i believe. I'll PM you.

Graham - will be sending yours this weekend, it's proving difficult to ship with damaging!

Matt! I still want it man!!

1 left with holes, 2 without.
1 of these is on hold for Andi in Germany, and if Shane ever decides to email me and deposit some funds, then another one will be sold also.... (hint hint!)

I will post pics of mine which is now installed finally! Goes well with my TRD radiator cap! Combined, these nearly double my horsepower.... :D

ill take one if their not all gone

Hey is there any air splitters left?

Whats the cost to get it shipped to NZ?

Any news here? Fizzled out?

Keep the interest coming - if we can get enough, we will see if we can make another run of these.

im interested, thanks

yea im keen, thanks

I just fitted mine. It is a C-One with hole. Only problem is it was sent to me in buble wrap i mean come on use a box. The thing was nearly split in half t was so bent. What should have taken five minutes to fit took an hour to try and clean up and was difficult as buggery to fit as so warped. i spose it looks all right now but i'm still not entirely happy. any way will post a pic in a few mins.

id still like one too...

Damn, Callum: Air splitter, TRD Rad cap, TRD oil cap..... you must be pushing some serious kilowatts...! :D I have TRD rad cap and Altezza Club air splitter, which is certainly worth more kw then a C-One splitter :P

I'm waiting to hear back from our supplier on a lead time for another batch of these, since we have enough interest to produce another run. Price will be as before + shipping for those not in NSW.

The three make a remarkable difference to the performance of the car, the oil cap helps to prevent the oil from becoming to viscous, the rad cap helps keep the coolant cooler, and the air splitter not only directs the air, but as the name suggests splits the attoms within the air promoting a turbine effect of the air which in-turn makes the air fuel mix more potent. Combined these mods result in around 0-25hp.



I should be in marketing. hehe. :woot:

sorry a bit off the topic!

wah. CTK1, I didnt know the aftermarket oil filler cap and radiator cap can do so much in terms fo hp improvement!

how does it work? do they give better seal? I dont get it?

much :lol: - classic!

Meanwhile, back at the topic, our former supplier is unable to do another run of these for us, which leads us to the group buy route. I (well, Brian) will enquire about organising one via Greenline, and via our workshop, and see which comes out best. I will be away for the next 2 weeks, so please direct enquiries in the first instance to Brian_J. Take it away Brian! :D

will do captain!
gimme some time to get some numbers together
