Tad0ms Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I'm looking for a cold air intake for my Mondeo, I'm not a fan of the flat panel filters because they seem to clog up really fast with debris, usually taking a handful of leaves out every month or so. K&N don't seem to think they have one that will fit but searches take me to the 57i and a Ram Air one popped up but I can't remember which one. Has anyone one here taken the risk with an Induction/Cold air intake from a different model Ford and succeeded or have any advice for me? I've got the Mondeo TDCI Duratorq 1.8L (QYBA) engine. Cheers, Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghia15 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I would be very interested in the outcome of this. I have a 57 plate 1.8 diesel and am going to service it soon. Just wondering if a panel filter is the way to go or if there are any real benifits of an induction kit. Looking at changing the exhaust after the turbo and putting a bigger inter cooler in as well before a re map so would be part of a bigger upgrade package. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkaminski100 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 "performance" filters often require special liquid to work correctly. There is an ongoing discussion of impact of this fluid on MAF sensor causing incorrect readings.I've seen a test of three filters : performance, new and used (2 year old).Impact on performance ? None.I would check if all plastic covers on the air box are installed as those boxes don't normally suck leaves. Cars that will do that (C4 as a prime example) will usually have filters with additional fabric underneath.Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
