Thank you sir but the space is not enough, if it gets higher there would be a problem with the oval ''lips" of the hood because they touch the sponge filter so the motor can suck air via the outside grilles. https://pictures.my-callit.com/public/image/788b42461d2ee12044c181326bd451f2ac39bb41/1000911272042_20200610103536.jpg I have a Felicia 2000 year model, 1300cc AMH with 68 PS https://fichasmotor.com/en/skoda/skoda-felicia-ii-1-3-68-cv/ Here is my engine bay, i have A/C and this make things very tight inside the plastic box. https://imgur.com/65FQus2 https://www.briskoda.net/forums/attachments/?page=3

Yes, that's why i opened the thread about the possibility of modification, there is no space for something additional inside there and i don't know anyone who will take the risk to create something like a plastic drawer with an extra filter inside. Guys with models like this https://forum.index.hu/Article/viewArticle?a=148398899&t=9147137 are very lucky and breath far more cleaner air than us.

I have a Felicia with ECU chip for almost 20 years (one update was done recently) plus custom exhaust (i also had filter like K&N or BMC). As for turbo back in 2000-2002 some tuners here in Greece advertise that can put a turbo on this engine, the cost for the whole kit then was 1.000.000 drachmas which is now about 2934 euro. Some guys made an engine swap from VW group and put a turbo on it but some guys keep the stock engine: Here is a Favorit turbo As for the green garden water hose....well...😲

As you can see things are ''very tight'' in there and lot of dust manages to pass through that sponge filter.

The problem is that beneath that sponge filter there is no room for anything else to fit, there is some sort of plastic cover which makes the intake narrow, i can barely put my fingers inside for few cm only. https://nemigaparts.com/img/catalogs/etka/st/101819000.png

Can i make a modification to my Felicia 1.3 filter case? https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/491645-can-i-make-a-modification-to-my-felicia-13-filter-case/ I wish i could make a patent like yours.

For many days i had a ''squeaking''' noise from the front, i search it i and i have found that was not from the belt but was from the frame of the radiator. While the car was moving i couldn't hear it but when i was on a parking procedure with windows down the ''eeek eeek'' noise was very nerve racking! One mechanic said ''can do anything, it's an old car, it's usual'' etc but another one believed me that was coming from the support frame and check it thoroughly,one screw was missing and another one was loose. Here is another ''surprise'', older and not from the engine bay but it's from the front part of the car. One of these idiots with Jeep vehicles with towbar make reverse without paying any attention, hit me and run away, here is how i found my Trusty: If you ask one of these upstart morons they will reply with hype ''it's for my boat'' but the majority of them don't have (they have a dog trailer) of his father had once a boat but they let it attached because they think with way will protect their bumper from a collision or they will not scratch it while parking.

No, only one store from Italy said that if i order it today i will get it (via courier with high shipping) at the first day of August (!) and when i said why that kind of delay they replied that they will get it first from the manufacturer (order) and when they get it they can send it to Greece.

Here is an older ''coolant tragedy''.

Yes, parking the car in the road where the sun hit's it many hours = very quickly Cold start. Here is the ''next": 10th Gas station pump test: 146,7 Km distance, 14,550 ltr fuel which means 9,91 ltr / 100 km or 28.50 Uk mpg (high temperature city traffic mainly plus some kilometres in mountain route) Yes, i am very happy 😁 and i think the results could be better next time because now the leak was stopped and the air box takes only fresh air.

Look like these: https://kritosparts.gr/Part/MPOUZI-BRISK-DR15TC-60000-KLM-101000060AA/e494101000060AA I have these: https://www.maxxparts.gr/mpouzi-champion-oe145t10.html which also cover the SKODA 101000060AA.

Aren't these the Champion RC89PYC? You have named your car too?

The photos stored in my pc of the latest modifications (mine and the technician's which sends them to me via viber) are over a 1000 so it's very easy for a misunderstanding to happen. Besides i was smart enough to make a patent, i was not ignorant to suggest to another guy destroy the sheet metal of his 5th door to fit a rubber part. 😂

Obviously you have no idea about our climate here. 😂

The ''walls'' are very thin at small diameters as 22-24mm, 1-2 turns more in the screew and they bend. An exampe: https://img.joomcdn.net/2a995ed0ab3dbf0896e4cea5bf81a49dc454ee5d_original.jpeg Take a look at the end of the tube, the ''lips'' as we call them here, this is ''an accident about to ''happen''.

We have that metal pipe also, i don't touch it. An older problem, the connection on that aluminium sensor got loose and the whole engine bay get full of hot coolant. That day was a nightmare.

Happened to me with an alternator regulator refurbish work, didn't last more than few days. If you have the knowledge and the tools then Go for it!

I have seen this in the past but i thought was for the ''racing guys''. The factory sends the emissions inside the combustion chamber (via throttle) to get burn. Some drivers don't like this because makes the throttle dirty after use so they guide those emissions to a small filter. Here is mine a year ago: Another ''surprise'' was that plastic part which was attached to the filter box, one night decide to escape, hit the belt and he drove it forward and got stuck in front of the pulley, thankfully it didn't jump back or didn't get inside the pulley-belt gap otherwise i would have a tragedy.

Many years back while returning home in a small uphill i heard a ''clang'' noise like something was dropped from below my car, i turn on the left road side with alarm, stopped checked with flash light and i saw nothing. When i parked i smell something like burned oil, i opened the hood and i saw that i had no engine oil cap! My mind went to that noise few minutes back, i took my motorcycle and returned to the same spot, first pass no luck, second and thank God i found it. By chance was dropped a little bit closer to the pavement (and weird) but none of the passing cars all these minutes step on the cap to broke it, i found it almost untouchable. Since in the past one day i saw that has loose with a tendency to ''escape'' i apply some aluminium tape to make things tighter but as i show you this didn't last long. After i installed a new oil cap another day while i was parking and when i was turning the key to ''Off'' position i heard a sound from the engine bay, i raise the hood and what i saw? The small filter for emissions decide to left the hose for Freedom but dropped on the pulley, few seconds more with the car running and i could have a disaster. PS: The photos are not good because was night and i had an old cellphone.

Cheap (chinese made) materials maybe?

After waiting so long the item never arrived so i had to order a new one from elsewere, i am outraged. Next week will arrive and then i had to go to the repair-shop for installation.

I send them email 3 days ago, i asked them if the P121S is proper for my car (due to ECU-chip, the custom exhaust etc) or if they have to suggest me another code and if i can buy it straight from them. No answer yet, maybe they don't have time for Felicia owners or they don't want more money from new customers.

Check your pm.

I asked a help from a friend of mine, soon will have some good news.

Here is the photo from the final procedure:
