envy intake

[richy2jz-gte]

just recived my apexi intake and envy intake to maf polished pipe and guess what? the flange on the envy pipe dont match the flange on the apexi intake but the apexi intake comes with a pipe but its 2 long for the uk tt so if i cut 2" of the end and get a piece of pipe the right diameter it should fit. does any1 know the diameter of the intake 2 the maf on the uk tt? the apexi pipe diameter is 85mm so if the maf housing is the same size i should b able to get a pipe and join it no probs. with a saving of £80 wich was a complete waste of money

Have you spoken to Envy about this yet? If you told them the car you've got and the parts don't fit then it sounds like you've got the wrong parts. They should be able to sort it out.

[richy2jz-gte]

i gatherd they were the wrong parts but they only came 2day so i didnt try fitting them till 6.00 so there will be no 1 there. ill give am a ring 2 morra tho. the pipe is just a bit of a waste of money when u get 1 in the kit. i know it a bit longer but nowt 30secs n a hacksaw wouldnt fix. just need 2 know the size of the MAF housing.

Rich,

We don't work normal hours ;)

That pipe is made for the Apexi flange, we only make the one pipe...

We dont sell anything that doesnt work...

Best Regards,

Gareth.

Hi Richy, The flange on pipe definatly mates up with the apexi power intake. I don't have one in front of me but from memory there are eight holes on the power intake and four holes in the flange on the polished pipe if you put the two flanges together and rotate the power intake four of the holes will mate up and four dont. Once you find the four that mate up insert the four bolts provided in the kit and tighten them up.

You then use the silicone pipe and jubilee clips to connect the pipe to the MAF Sensor.

You should have called us at six we were at work until 7.30 we tend to be there most nights. If you want to give me a call in the morning I can talk you through the installation.

Hope that helps

Kevin

[richy2jz-gte]

keyboard works fine thanks, was in a hurry to go out, mrs was giving me grief! :twak: :p

The flanges aint even close, have a look at the pictures ive taken. Theres just not 4 holes that match up, you can see it in the pictures that they dont match up.

[Sharpie]

don't these work for you ?

[richy2jz-gte]

this is with 1 hole lined up, as you can see the diameter of the holes on the evny pipe (bottom) is approx 1/2 inch, larger than the holes on the orginal apexi pipe (top). All holes in the filter are the same diameter around the filter.

ROTFPMSL !

[richy2jz-gte]

as you can see the gasket covers all the holes on the filter and lines up with 4.....

[richy2jz-gte]

But when you put the gasket on the evny pipe and line up one hole, the others are way out, there wider than the gasket itself

[richy2jz-gte]

if this is the only pipe they have hope thay havent had too many made.:( would make a nice paperweight tho.

Rich spoke to envy today and it seems that apexi have changed the air filter. So the problem wasnt envys fault, they have sorted the problem and rich is happy with the outcome. There customer service is 100% and he will be purchasing from them again in the future.


Richs mrs :)

[richy2jz-gte]

yep sorted now. i just cut 2" of the epexi pipe and it fitted no pobs so ill be sending my polished envy one back. its wasnt there fault it was a change in design of the filter. ill be purchasing a set of koni adjustable shocks from them after i get rltc fitted.:)
