With a bit of jiggling have managed 9 inches ground clearance so rain and puddle safe
planning to rune the injen hydroshield filter covers as well
filters are injen dry super nano

 

Who did you get the kit from?

 

The filters and filter hydroshield are made by injen and are dry as opposed to oiled and the pipework I adapted some angled silicon and Ali pipe

 

https://injen.com/ Their web site configurator doesn't list anything for Jaguars. At least from here in the US.

You removed the whole front clip. That makes it really easy for this install. But in your opinion could you do it just removing the bottom cover and wheel well guard?

 

Much easier with bumper off
and the filter is universal so not model specific

 

I think the filter is the x-1021-bb

 

Correct, I fitted the Injen nano cones (with reducer ring) to the Mina Gallery full intake kit. The Hydroshield is 1037BLK (for the black covers).

I managed to fit the Mina Gallery full intake and Injen cones without removing the bumper. It can be done with wheels, arch liner and undertray removed.

Space is limited behind bumper, so wanted to fit everything with bumper in place avoiding any clearance issues when trying to refit bumper.

Really steps up the supercharger intake whine a notch!

 

Guys,
Where can one purchase the hydro socks which go over the actual cone air filter to prevent or minimize water splash onto the cone filter. Thank you very much.

 

Red hydro sock is X-1037RED

 

Thanks for the installation comments! That's what I hoped.

I was looking at the Injen web site, and the Mina Gallery kit isn't that much more $. And includes a bunch of extra pieces that make it a much nicer install. What was the decision tree to use the Injen parts?

 

The injen is a better filter as no oil to **** your maf up.
I had the mina upper already but didn't want a oiled filter

 

Ahhha, didn't know the Mina was an oiled filter. I don't think their web site mentions that. I think I agree.

 

The full Mina Gallery kit is required if you want the engine bay 'Oooo..', plus remove the intake noise suppressors lower down. Mina include a couple of no name oiled filters (aka K&N), but I would not trust my engine's inards with their filtration capability. Hence wishing to avoid the risk of mucking up my MAFs like @Gasman2 , I went for the Injen. They were promoted in a really old thread, which I can't seem to locate now

 

I'll order a pair for my filters.
Thanks again my friend.

 

I ordered the Mina 'Upper" kit already. Haven't installed it yet. It does look very cool. Were did you get the rest of the stuff to cobble together the Injen cones to the Mina Uppers? You can't see it anyways. But you want it to be robust.

 

The Mina Gallery lower kit comes with aluminium brackets to support the filters and MAF housing. The brackets are not very well designed and do not match the installation guide pictures. You can make them fit with a bit of filing and bending. You will need to purchase 2 x 90mm - 70mm air filter reducer rings to fit the neck of the Injen filters into the Mina pipework. A quick search on Ebay will throw up plenty of choice. It's not a complicated mod to carry out, the full intake and cone filters, just pipework, hose clamps, nuts and bolts. However you will have to set aside plenty of time for fiddling and fine tuning, to get everything to fit neatly, without rubbing or causing rattles. It's worth taking the time to get it right first time

Gasman2 what are you doing with the smaller diameter blue hoses in the lower photo?

 

They were for my 2nd chargecooler install
I flipped it so the pipes were on the same side as the pump
I have split the chargecooler off from the main coolant and fitted a small tank to top it up and bleed
Fitted a wraptor customs uprated chargecooler which is twice the size of the original and then added another chargecooler at the front under the bumper bar

 

And have also plumbed in my water/meth injection
