richy2jz-gte Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mawby Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 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 Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 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.

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richy2jz-gte Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 keyboard works fine thanks, was in a hurry to go out, mrs was giving me grief! 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 Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 don't these work for you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richy2jz-gte Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richy2jz-gte Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 as you can see the gasket covers all the holes on the filter and lines up with 4..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richy2jz-gte Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mini Cruiser Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 leave my smutting mags out of this 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.
