Air filter, cooling system and catch can.

After searching the Showoff Imports warehouse we found the best air filter to suit our project. A group M like filter system, this should do the job of feeding the K20 with enough air.
Than there is the massive Megan Racing high capacity radiator. After welding some AN-connections (yet another custom job) on it we could use braided hoses with AN-fittings. Together with a Meziere pump this cooling system should be in enough to keep everything “cool”. The thermostat has gone so we always have full cooling capacity. During the filling process we discovered some leaks, after fixing that we thought we were all good. Yupz, we thought. There happened to be a major hole in the back of the engine. After comparing with the k20 ep3 it came obvious. There used to be a heater connected to that hole. After market plugs are available only from one brand, and we needed it fast, so that wasn’t an option. The best solution in these cases is to make one yourself, nothing can beat that So there you have it, one custom k20 heater plug. Only available at Showoff imports!!!!!!!
We don’t need any oil to get into the our engine we need a catch can to keep the oil from getting sucked back into the engine. For environmental reasons we need to catch all access oil the engine is spitting out.
