There is also some restriction in below the air filter. The second water catcher. Roel

Or get rid of the lot including the airbox and use a Honda S200 air filter left under the bonnet


Do you mean something like a cone air filter for a Honda S2000? Is anyone running something like that in a Defender?

Was never fully happy with the look of the ducting so just got round to fitting some proper silicone hoses and another stainless 90 elbow.

Looks a bit more factory now, there’s more clearance below the steering arm and it’s stronger and more rigid.

Not a TD5 but you get the idea. 102mm pipe from airbox to wing tops. DIY adaptor plate covered with a snow cowl. Can’t get much free-er flowing. Been like this for a couple years. Never had a wet air filter. The inlet is raised from the adaptor plate by about 5mm to reduce the risk of water ingress.

Also gives me good symmetry having a snow cowl either side. 2011 Defender DCPU 2.2 - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic30623.html
